Hello, While building packages in the BLFS 10.0 book, I've sometimes created a backup of the root directory. However, I did this with the zip utility, without the --symlinks flag. When I had to use one, I discovered that all the symlinks were replaced with copies of the files. I then used rdfind to replace all the copies (50000 duplicate files, including the kernel source) with symlinks. However, this did not make the symlinks exactly as it was done in the book, which I could see clearly in the libraries directories, as you can see in the screenshot [1].
Everything I checked seemed to work fine, including twm in X, which was the last thing I built. My question is: can I continue building this system? I want to include GNOME and other programs. Or do I risk something not working later because of the different symlinks? Thank you very much, David Gherghita [1] https://ibb.co/PhNRm7k
