Description

(this should be for version 6.4...

There is no list of required packages the HOST environment requires. For example, a default Ubuntu (and family) install does not include essential tools to build packages. In order to build binutils 2.18 I had to install the following:

g++ (build-essential) makeinfo (texinfo) m4 (texinfo) flex bison

There should be a list of pre-requisites packages the host needs in order to build the basic LFS system. Flex and Bison may not be required but I installed them anyway.
