Description

I am on Ubuntu12.04 updated to 28.3.2012.

The problem is on executing the version-check.sh from:

http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/stable/prologue/hostreqs.html

On bash(4.2-1ubuntu1) I got:

version-check.sh: line 33: makeinfo: command not found

Marking as Invalid.

The whole purpose of that script, and the section that it is in is to let you know whether your host has the prerequisite packages installed.

The fact that it output 'command not found' should have alerted you to the fact that your host doesn't have the Texinfo package installed (that line should be prefixed with the word 'Texinfo:').

Install texinfo on your Ubuntu host, and in future, please use the lfs-support mailing list, it's there to provide support.
