It really isn't difficult to build LFS on an ARM platform.
I don't know why LFS is so adverse to adding it as a platform, being all
the schools and instuitions that use the Raspberry pi as a learning
platform.
We are adverse because it is time consuming. When preparing for a
release it takes two weeks full time. Adding another architecture would
take another two weeks.
There are, on average, 3 to 4 new packages to download and test every
day of the week. Weekends included.
Maintaining LFS/BLFS requires dedicated effort. In some cases a new
user says "I can to <task>", but that typically happens once. The
problem is not doing a task once, it is the long term maintenance.
