Some of "my rules for my distro":

I refine that slightly and go with

/usr/src/lfs/usr/(pkgname)/

and

/usr/src/lfs/usr-local/(pkgname)/

so that there's a differentiation between the "system" (--prefix=/usr) and the
"local"  packages. (Some BLFS packages are "system").

I recall it was useful to be able to just mount a source hierachcy on
/usr/src/lfs.

In terms of the Package User UID/GIDs, I recall I also started the "system" ones
at 2000 and the local" ones at 3000.
