Dear LFS dev, First time poster here so please be gentle. I've compiled LFS dev several times before but this time libcap (section 6.28) is giving me a headache. I'm following the latest version of LFS-systemd SVN-20200106 with ubuntu 19.10 as host system running in virutalbox. I even installed libcap-dev on the host system as part of new dependencies mentioned in LFS book. Also the "Host system requirement" script reports that the host system has the prerequisites installed properly. But no matter what I do libcap complains that pthread and libc cannot be found:

I would like to mention I deviated a bit from the book by running everything inside bash scripts (they used to work until now). I've been following the latest development regarding libcap in LFS book including #4569 which was addressed today 2020/01/06. I tried recompiliing everything from scratch several times and it always gthrows me error at this stage. I'm confused, any help would be appreciated.
