Forcing a exact version of file in Host System Requirements is stupid. We'll have to install a file for host system in Chap. 5. There is also a FIXME in file-5.39/magic/Makefile.am: > # FIXME: Build file natively as well so that it can be used to compile > # the target's magic file; for now we bail if the local version does not match Could someone give upstream a patch for it? > Chapter 6.

Other packages may have similar issue. I think we should create a "fake" x86_64-lfs-linux-gnu-pkg-config: ln -sv /bin/false /mnt/lfs/tools/bin/x86_64-lfs-linux-gnu-pkg-config > Also, but probably out of scope, > > Chapter 5.
