10<para>Below is a list of packages you need to download for building a basic
11Linux system. The listed version numbers correspond to versions of the
12software that are <emphasis>known</emphasis> to work, and this book is
13based upon them. Unless you are an experienced LFS builder, we highly
14recommend not to try out newer versions, as the build commands for one
15version may not work with a newer version. Also, there is often a good
16reason for not using the latest version due to known problems that haven't
17been worked around yet.</para>
18
19<para>All the URLs, when possible, refer to the project's page at
20<ulink url="http://www.freshmeat.net"/>. The Freshmeat
21pages will give you easy access to the official download sites as well as
22project websites, mailinglists, FAQs, Changelogs and more.</para>
23
24<para>We can't guarantee that these download locations are always available
25to you. In case a download location has changed since this book was
26published, please try to google for the package. Should you remain
27unsuccessful with this you should consult the book's errata page at
28<ulink url="http://linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/print"/> or try
29the alternative means of download listed at
30<ulink url="http://linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/packages.html"/></para>
31
32<para>You'll need to store all the downloaded packages and patches somewhere
33that is conveniently available throughout the entire build. You'll also need a
34working directory in which to unpack the sources and build them. A scheme that
35works well is to use $LFS/tools/src/packages for all the downloaded files and
36$LFS/tools/src for the working directory. In this way, everything will be on the
37LFS partition and always available. Normally, you should delete the source and
38build directories after each package installation, unless instructed to do
39otherwise.</para>
40
41<!--
42<para>For your convenience the top of the list contains a link to a file
43you can use with the <ulink url="http://wget.sunsite.dk">wget</ulink>
44program. Using this file and the <userinput>wget</userinput> program will
45make it easy to download all the files at once, rather than downloading each
46and every individual file manually.</para>
