Errata for the 11.2-systemd Version of the LFS Book

Known Security Vulnerabilities

• Read the security advisories page.

Miscellaneous Errata

• The original tarball for expat is now unavailable due to a security vulnerability. Please use expat-2.5.0 instead, see the security advisories for more information.

• The sanity check in "5.5 Glibc-2.36" is wrong. The first command should read "echo 'int main(){}' | $LFS_TGT-gcc -xc -" instead of "echo 'int main(){}' | gcc -xc -".

• The original tarball for zlib is now unavailable due to a security vulnerability. Please use zlib-1.2.13 instead, and use 1.2.13 for the library name in the stripping commands at the end of Chapter 8. See the security advisories for more information.

• A bug of GCC 5.1 can cause GCC Pass 1 fail to build, so in the host system requirements the minimal GCC version should be 5.2, instead of 5.1.
