Hi Bruce.
I suggest to move `udevadm hwdb --update` up to the chapter in the book
(from Makefile.lfs). With that change fakeroot/DESTDIR folks can easily
move that line to their post-upgrades/post-installs.
Right now `make DESTDIR=<whatever> -f udev-lfs-196/Makefile.lfs install`
does not work with that instruction if it is being run from fakeroot,
because it tries to write to /etc, ignoring DESTDIR. So we need to make
seds like `sed -i -e '/udevadm hwdb/d' udev-lfs-${pkgver}/Makefile.lfs`
[1].
Thanks.
