Creating the links assumes being just near the / directory

Description
the three ln commands try to link "../usr/bin/something" to "target". But when compiling in /usr/src/somedir/lfs-tar/gcc-build, the command won't find "something".
I found the bug inj the LFS 4.0 book. But it is in CVS, too.
(the "enter new bug" form does not know the 4.0 version!?)

The commands work. "../usr/bin/file" doens't relate to your working directory. It relates to the directory in which the symlink is created. If you create a symlink in /bin then ../usr/bin will work as expected.
This is all documented in the ln man page. I suggest you read it.

Reporter, did you try the commands and see what it does? It creates appropriate symbolic links.
This bug should be marked invalid.
