I'm not sure the BLFS information should change, as it is my (and
I believe other editor's) opinion that it really isn't our place to
recommend one piece of software, or methodology, over another. I
believe that if we (LFS) are going to present something then either:
I think we need to bring something up in LFS. If a user decides he
wants to use a package manager, he's not going to want to find out about
his options *after* he's already built his core system and moved on to
BLFS. The minute a user starts building packages that will be in the
final system, he should be able to use a package manager, if he so
desires.
I don't think Randy had any problem with the fact that package
management in general is mentioned in LFS - just the fact that one
scheme specifically is recommended in LFS, when BLFS and the FAQs say
otherwise.
