Hello,

There is too long lines in instructions of the books.
For example in the glibc instruction of the chapiter06. It makes
problems in the pdf version of the book.
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/downloads/stable-systemd/LFS-BOOK-7.8-systemd.pdf
at the page 90 :

"install -v -Dm644 ../glibc-2.22/nscd/nscd.service
/lib/systemd/system/nscd.service
install -v -Dm644 ../glibc-2.22/nscd/nscd.tmpfiles
/usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/nscd.conf"

(only in the systemd version)

but also at the line

"ln -sfv ../../libexec/gcc/$(gcc -dumpmachine)/5.2.0/liblto_plugin.so
/usr/lib/bfd-plugins/"

of 6.17. GCC-5.2.0 at the page 107 (in the two versions)

I think that a maximum of 70 characters per line is good.

We really do not recommend the pdf versions of the books due to this type of issue. Generally users want to copy/paste and that doesn't work very well from many pdf apps.

I can break the line with dumpmachine to

ln -sfv ../../libexec/gcc/$(gcc -dumpmachine)/5.2.0/liblto_plugin.so \
        /usr/lib/bfd-plugins/"

for the main book but Douglass will need to do split the lines for the systemd book.
