789	Greater emphasis suggested concerning packages and patches	m-abel@…	lfs-book@…	"Fabulous book.  Two comments (related enough to submit as one report) which I
think it should say up front:

1.  DON'T install all the patches at the beginning.  Install them as specified.
 Not every patch is suitable for every compile.

(My GCC phase 1 install had some bonkers problems, like stdio.h not found....)

2.  DO delete build and source directories immediately, except as directed.

(I'm not 100% sure about this, but I seemed to have problems if I left them around.)

Best regards,
