Severity: normal | Keywords: sources_path
------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
Chapter 5 Section 1: Binutils Pass 1 has a parts that are ambiguous this
patch attempts to address these issues.
There is a comment in Chapter 3 stating the following:
"A working directory is also required to unpack the sources and build
them. $LFS/sources can be used both as the place to store the tarballs and
patches and as a working directory. "
But none of the paths reflect this statement. In some cases they read
`../` where they should read `../sources/` it looks like there may be more
patches like this that are needed. I will keyword them with 'sources_path'
in the future.
I've also added cleanup instructions, it is stated earlier that you should
remove the source and build directory contents before moving on, showing
an example here would be beneficial.
Thirdly, I've added an explicit tar command and directory path
`$LFS/sources` to ensure proper unpacking and directory context. Patch is
attached.
