+Installs a set-up to build BLFS packages.
+You can set these variables:
+TRACKING_DIR  : where the installed package file is kept.
+                 (default /var/lib/jhalfs/BLFS)
+BLFS_ROOT     : where the installed tools will be installed, relative to $HOME.
+                Must start with a '/' (default /blfs_root)
+BLFS_BRANCH_ID: development, branch-xxx, xxx (where xxx is a valid tag)
+                (default development)
+Examples:
+1 - If you plan to use the tools to build BLFS on top of LFS, but you did not
+use jhalfs, or forgot to include the jhalfs-blfs tools:
+(as root) mkdir -p /var/lib/jhalfs/BLFS && chown -R user /var/lib/jhalfs
+(as user) ./install-blfs-tools
+2 - To install with only user privileges:
+TRACKING_DIR=/home/user/blfs_root/trackdir ./install-blfs-tools
