So, only root, or somebody who is in the 'root' group (if that even exists) can read those files. That sounds ok for a normal system, but your lfs user will need to be able to read them. I assume you created $LFS/sources as root, so now root needs to chown those files. ĸen -- Nanny Ogg usually went to bed early. After all, she was an old lady.
