--disable-ifconfig
This option prevents Inetutils from installing the ifconfig
program, which can be used to configure network interfaces. LFS uses
ip from IPRoute2 to perform this task.
They are doing this to eliminate duplicate tools.
ifconfig and IPRoute2 work side by side on any distro I have used.
