I will suggest that trying to use RPM while you are learning about
how LFS builds things is not a good idea. Once you have
successfully built, and booted, LFS at least once then you can think
about using any package management system of your choice, if you
wish to.

I beg to desagree.
Makefile+spec bring me consistency, I can redo whole the process over
and over
getting the same result (even if it is not successful) changing one
parameters, being sure previous step are done the same.
Make spec file force me to have a real understanding, going further
than "cut and past".

Your distro, your rules. Just don't expect a lot of help when doing
uncommon things.
