LFS Book Conversion Tools Installation Instructions

After downloading the SVN source, there are some things that need to be set up
on your computer if you want to convert the XML source into something easier to
read (e.g. HTML, TXT, or PDF).  If you are interested in this, then keep
reading.  If you are only interested in editing the XML source for re-
submission to the lfs-book or lfs-dev mailing lists, then you do not need this
document.  Instead, you need to read the LFS Editor's Manual.  See the LFS
website at https://www.linuxfromscratch.org for more information.
