In case you might be interested, I have a version of the book using dpkg to
create simplistic packages at: http://dschepler.github.io/lfs-dpkg/ .
Unfortunately, it's not quite complete as I got diverted before filling in
the "contents" section of the dpkg page, and before updating the kernel
chapter to create a package.  I also haven't merged from upstream
lfs-systemd in quite a while.  However, it might still be useful for seeing
my approach: I have a set of scripts that autocreate
debian/tmp/DEBIAN/control and then create the deb package, without any need
for user intervention in most cases.
