18 <para>After the package download is complete, the next step is to make sure
19 that the system can properly find the files. If you set up your login
20 scripts as recommended in <xref linkend='postlfs-config-profile'/>, update
21 the needed paths by appending to the
22 <filename>extrapaths.sh</filename> script. The programs are always
23 installed in an &lt;ARCH&gt;-linux subdirectory and on 32-bit x86 this is
24 always i386-linux. For x86_64 and i?86 we can generate this as $TEXARCH:
