There's probably been discussion on this before, but I couldn't find
anything when I search on linuxfromscratch.org.
Shouldn't wget, or curl since it seems that a lot of programs rely on
it (wget is more lightweight) be included in a base LFS build so that
one can retrieve additional packages?
LFS includes inetutils, which has several internet programs, including ftp.
Ah, I see that now--having FTP is definitely a boon, but aren't the
majority of packages available via HTTP?
