<para>Below is a list of all the packages that are needed to download for
|
|
building the basic system. The version numbers printed correspond to versions of
|
|
the software that is known to work and which this book is based on.

|
If you
|
|
experience problems which you can't solve yourself, then please download the
|
|
version that
|
|
is assumed in this book (in case you downloaded a newer version).</para>

<para>If the packages.linuxfromscratch.org server isn't allowing connections
|
|
anymore try one of our mirror sites. The addresses of the mirror sites

<para>We have provided a list of official download sites of the packages below
|
|
in <ulink url="appendixc.html">Appendix C - Official download locations

|
|
that are recommended for use in this book. You can check the official
|
|
sites in Appendix C to determine whether a newer package is available.
|
|
If you do download a newer package, we would appreciate hearing
|
|
whether you were able to install the package using this book's
|
|
instructions or not.</para>

<para>Please note that all files downloaded from the LFS FTP archive are files
|
|
compressed with bzip2 instead of gz. If you don't know how to
|
|
handle bz2 files, check out
