Hi, Starting with systemd-222, the systemd developers, after switching to github not so long before that, stopped offering traditional tarballs that included autotools files, html docs and manual pages and instead started using github-generated tarballs which only include a snapshot of a git repository at the time of the tag.
Such tarballs are unsuitable for LFS, mainly because they don't include package name in the default download URL, they don't provide autotools files, which would require additional package being added to LFS to utilize autotools and there are no manual pages or html docs which would also require additional deps to generate them during the build procedure. Now, to overcome mentioned issues, I have generated a tarball myself that's similar to the ones that were previously offered by systemd developers. Thanks to Bruce, I've been allowed to host them on his anduin server and starting with systemd-222, the LFS book will switch to using self-generated tarballs. They are hosted at the following location: http://anduin.linuxfromscratch.org/sources/other/systemd/ -- Note: My last name is not Krejzi.
