By the time you are in BLFS, your host system should not matter, because either you are in chroot after completing LFS, or else you have booted your shiny new LFS.

Google thinks that happens if you use a really old version of Python2 (less than 2.5). Or, I suppose, perhaps you have not installed Python2 at all ? I think that Igor fixed the deps yesterday, apparently Python was no longer in the dependency chain. If that is the case, and you wish to later build firefox or thunderbird, make sure that you build openssl before Python2. ĸen -- Nanny Ogg usually went to bed early. After all, she was an old lady.
