| 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>

| 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
|
