14 | <para>As you follow the various sections in the book, you will observe that |
15 | the book occasionally includes patches that are required for a successful and |
16 | secure installation of the packages. The general policy of the book is to |
17 | include patches that fall in one of the following criteria:</para> |
18 | |
19 | <itemizedlist> |
20 | <listitem> |
21 | <para>Fixes a compilation problem.</para> |
22 | </listitem> |
23 | <listitem> |
24 | <para>Fixes a security problem.</para> |
25 | </listitem> |
26 | <listitem> |
27 | <para>Fixes a broken functionality.</para> |
28 | </listitem> |
29 | </itemizedlist> |
30 | |
31 | <para>In short, the book only includes patches that are either required or |
32 | recommended. There is a |
33 | <ulink url="https://www.&lfs-domainname;/patches">Patches subproject</ulink> |
34 | which hosts various patches (including the patches referenced in the books) |
35 | to enable you to configure your LFS the way you like it.</para> |
