You extract one package at a time, say, when you are at a "gcc" page,
type "tar -xvf gcc-5.2.0.tar.bz2", then change to the extracted

directory, and remove the extracted directory (rm -rf gcc-5.2.0
gcc-build).
I am reading the LFS book sequentially, doing things in the exact order
of the book. Apparently, extracting the packages in /mnt/lfs/sources is
not done at exactly at this time but when continuing to read the book.
For example, if I followed the instructions in the second box in 5.3 I
would have extracted all the packages. However, in 5.5 it says, "First
extract the gcc tarball ..." and then it says "tar -xf
../mpfr-3.1.3.tar.xz". Please just for a sanity check, am I reading this
right?
5.3 is clear, it does say only to do one at a time. See step 3. in the
"Important" box - "For each package:"
