Hi there! Just passed LFS once again (first time was long ago) and thought about one improvement.
While going through, I’ve managed to miss `make install` in util-linux in Chapter 5. Later on, I’ve found my mistake, but the only lifesaver was my taring of the tools directory. So this is what I’ve thought about: maybe it makes sense to create some kind of script, which will check the consistency of directories. It could be run at the end of Chapter 5 and Chapter 6 to ensure all files are in place. Sounds reasonable or I'm just overwatching something? Yes, I know, there is an option whether to install the documentation, but test script could check only the existence of essential files, skipping over inessential. And it looks rather simple — just diff over the list of files from reference system.
