<para>Below is a list of packages you need to download for building a basic
Linux system. The listed version numbers correspond to versions of the
software that are <emphasis>known</emphasis> to work, and this book is
based upon them. Unless you are an experienced LFS builder, we highly
recommend not to try out newer versions, as the build commands for one
version may not work with a newer version. Also, there is often a good
reason for not using the latest version due to known problems that haven't
been worked around yet.</para>
<para>All the URLs, when possible, refer to the project's page at
<ulink url="http://www.freshmeat.net">Freshmeat.net</ulink>. The Freshmeat
pages will give you easy access to the official download sites as well as
project websites, mailinglists, FAQs, Changelogs and more.</para>
<para>We can't guarantee that these download locations are always available
to you. In case a download location has changed since this book was
published, please try to google for the package. Should you remain
unsuccessful with this you should consult the book's errata page at
<ulink url="http://linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/print"/> or try
the alternative means of download listed at
<ulink url="http://linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/packages.html"/></para>
<!--
<para>For your convenience the top of the list contains a link to a file
you can use with the <ulink url="http://wget.sunsite.dk">wget</ulink>
program. Using this file and the <userinput>wget</userinput> program will
make it easy to download all the files at once, rather than downloading each
and every individual file manually.</para>

some functionality that's not enabled by default. Please feel free to examine
the patches database, located at <ulink url="http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/patches"/>, and choose any additional patches you might wish to use.</para>
