Your book, your rules

I don't care of some packages move from LFS to BLFS.
My build system don't have an artificial frontier between what represent LFS 
chap6 and BLFS on.
Both LFS chap 6 and later packages are always build in one shot.

I didn't follow every LFS changes. That's my choice. I didn't remove pkg-config 
from my build system, because related to my requirements, I considered the 
prerequisites acceptable as I need anyway to build glib/Python. Probably since 
IPCop use the LFS way to build, we always build popt because another package 
require that.

Stop to dream and code what you want to be a new reality and push that upstream.

My two cent is that to be able to push upstream your changes that would allow 
you to deliver LFS from perl, you will need autoconf and automake to bootstrap 
the modified code.

So you will need perl autoconf automake and cvs/svn/git working somewhere  ;-)
