- replace some characters by their utf-8 encoded equivalent (and change
encoding in the <?xml?> line
- replace 
 with a true newline char. This is somewhat more readable
anyway.
We don't use it and it uses ( for opening parenthesis.
I am not sure whether this has some reason or not, but
we want to get reed of &#xx; chars in our change to utf-8,
so easier to remove than to find out why...
In chapter 6, patch configure outputs:
libattr development library was not found or not usable.
GNU patch will be built without xattr support.
While this is normal in chapter 6 (building a temporary patch), we
should mention this dependency in the dependencies page.
The template named generate-basic-index in
{docbook-xsl}/xhtml/autoidx.xsl has a bug that generates a div element
with a wrong xmlns:xlink attribute. See
https://github.com/docbook/xslt10-stylesheets/issues/239.
Rather than fixing docbook-xsl, which would work only in LFS (but we
want to be able to render on other distros), copy the faulty template
to our customization files (lfs-index.xsl), so that this one is used.
We can also simplify it a lot since we don't need all the cases
covered in general docbook-xsl.
For some reason, the stylesheets generate a
<div xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" ...> element in
longindex.html, but this is not valid in xhtml (the attribute
xmlns=xlink is not defined in the DTD). The problem is that tidy then
thinks it is not a true xhtml and removes the doctype declaration.
But when a browser receives a file without doctype declaration, it
thinks it uses an old standard, and switches to "quirks mode"
(for firefox, this can be seen by typing ctrl-I on the page).
- according to our typography, referring to a manual page should be
<filename>page(x)</filename>
- don't enclose punctuation into quotes
- use <option> for option
Since it is needed for both building and installing, exporting it
allows to have it defined even if building as a regular user (so that
sudo is run for installing) or using a package manager (which usually
runs in a new shell and forgets unexported variables)

In Linux 6.6 DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION no longer depends on FB, so we no
longer need to select FB (tested in a QEMU VM).
But if DRM is selected, we must select both DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION and
FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE or we'll see only blank screen. And now
FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE is not selected by default, be warned!!
I don't see a reason to upload vim tarball onto anduin. And now anduin
does not have vim-9.0.2136.tar.gz.
I tried downloading vim-8.0.0586 (shipped by LFS 8.2) from GitHub and it
worked fine. So it seems the GitHub storage is stable enough.
