 The *first* time you build LFS, run all the commands through by
hand - pasting from the browser is perfectly ok.  But before you
restart, check the host-prerequisites section and fix up any missing
packages.  Yes, doing it unscripted takes longer.  While packages
are building, take the time to read the page about what you are
doing, and make sure you don't omit any steps.

 When you have built LFS successfully, scripts are good.  By that
stage you should have a deeper understanding of what *can* go wrong,
and also of what logging (if any) you wish to achieve.  Equally, you
should then be in a position to diagnose where the error is likely
to be.

 I don't claim to understand your script (the use of compile.list
looks cool, I just don't see where it ever gets updated), but I note
two things :

1. You are using apt-get before you begin.  Is /bin/sh a symlink to
dash ?  If so, that is not adequate.

2. You seem to be using git checkouts instead of tarballs - fair
enough, if you have the bandwidth and if the versions agree.  This
does mean that your scripts become excessively long.

 Earlier, you had the 'No such file' error - that is because
something has linked to a host library that no longer exists in
chroot : it's in the FAQ.  You mentioned using the host 'ld', I
think.

 When you do things differently, you *will* get unusual errors.  If
you can't fix them after googling, it will often be some hours
before you get any response : we aren't all keeping the same hours
