Just a heads up. I am in the process of updating all current packages
in the ticket system except systemd (7 packages including a new glibc).
Glibc now requires Python-3.4 or later so that will be going into
Chapter 5 and requires an update to the host system requirements.
Checking against lfs-8.3, that brings us to 33 new packages in this
cycle not including an expected update to binutils in the next day or
two. Our normal number of updates in a six month cycle is about 28
packages. In addition, there may be some other new packages released
before the lfs-8.4 package freeze scheduled for Feb 14.
I expect the current set of updates to be committed later today.

Excellent!
Now the fun begins, seeing which BLFS packages require fixes to build
with the new Glibc :)
As a side note, going through the list of LFS packages I noticed that
Chapter 6's util-linux has the switch "--without-python" Is this by
design or was it forgotten to be removed after Python 3 was added to
LFS?
I think that is an oversight. I'll check it out. Thanks.
