In 6.19, building coreutils the patch statement is:

If I'm reading this right, the "&&" doesn't add anything. Is this
suppose to read
patch -Np1 -i ../coreutils-8.23-i18n-1.patch && \
touch Makefile.in
As it's written, it doesn't look like it makes a difference if it's
there or not, just puzzling that it's there.
Try running 'ls &&' and see what happens. You don't need the backslash.
Actually, we generally don't use && in LFS but we use it a lot in BLFS. I'll
remove it.
