13 | <para>The software used to create an LFS system is constantly being updated
|
---|
14 | and enhanced. Security warnings and bug fixes may become available after
|
---|
15 | the LFS book has been released. To check whether the package versions or
|
---|
16 | instructions in this release of LFS need any modifications—to repair
|
---|
17 | security vulnerabilities or to fix other bugs—please visit
|
---|
18 | <ulink url="&errata;"/>
|
---|
19 | before proceeding with your build. You should note any
|
---|
20 | changes shown and apply them to the relevant sections of the book as you
|
---|
21 | build the LFS system.</para>

23 | <para>In addition, the Linux From Scratch editors maintain a list of security
|
---|
24 | vulnerabilities discovered <emphasis>after</emphasis> a book has been released. To read the list, please visit

25 | <ulink url="&secadv;"/> before proceeding with your build. You should apply
|
---|
26 | the changes suggested by the advisories to the relevant sections of the
|

27 | book as you build the LFS system. And, if you will use the LFS system as
|
---|
28 | a real desktop or server system, you should continue to consult the
|
---|
29 | advisories and fix any security vulnerabilities, even when the LFS system
|
