Hello,
Why not have the release book rendered for users without the test
commands?
Why hasn't somebody thought of that before?
From my experience with jhalfs enabling all tests, amazingly, only a
couple of packages fail tests in chapter 5, and many have the same test
failures in chapter 5 and 6.
I'd say that since LFS is for educational purposes, and that in the
present case, the OP had not read the book carefully (otherwise he would
have known about the uselessness of tests in chapter 5), tests in
chapter 5 are there to teach how to read the book carefully ;-)
