Hi,
In LFS, the pages titles "Stripping" and "Stripping again" contain general
clean up instructions (like removing doc, info in /tools, and removing .la
files). Also, the justification is only to save space on disk , while removing
.la files also prevents some nasty behavior of libtool associated with meson
(and does not save so much space)...
So instead of "Remove unneeded files", I propose:
"While we are at it, it is good to also remove the libtool files (with
extension .la), which may lead to difficulties when updating some packages,
and are not needed:"
And Instead of "Stripping" in the title, I'd put "Cleaning Up".
The section in Chapter 6 is already named "Cleaning Up".
Although it is not really needed, I put the .la file removal in Chapter 5
for consistency. We could rename that section to "Stripping and cleaning up".
