standards: Fix it up to date

The info has been severly outdated. And some info is even incorrect
from day one, for example even Glibc and GCC are not listed for LSB core
(they provide libc.so.6, libstdc++.so.6, etc.).

33
34 <para>The LSB has four separate specifications: Core, Desktop,
35 Languages, and Imaging. Some parts of Core and Desktop
36 specifications are architecture specific. There are also two trial
37 specifications: Gtk3 and Graphics. LFS attempts to conform to the LSB
38 specifications for the IA32 (32-bit x86) or AMD64 (x86_64)
39 architectures discussed in the previous section.</para>
40
41 <note><para>Many people do not agree with these requirements.
42 The main purpose of the LSB is to ensure that proprietary software
43 can be installed and run on a compliant system.
44 Since LFS is source based, the user has complete control over what
45 packages are desired; you may choose not to install some packages that
46 are specified by the LSB.</para></note>

51 <para>While it is possible to create a complete system that will pass the LSB
52 certification tests <quote>from scratch,</quote> this can't be done without many additional packages
53 that are beyond the scope of the LFS book. Installation instructions for some of these
54 additional packages can be found in BLFS. </para>
