To automatize packages build from the BLFS book instructions is a huge
task. The BLFS book isn't linear, some package pages need to use a non
defaul layout, there are circular dependencies, several packages can be
installed on a non default prifix, build commands can change based on what
default layout, there are circular dependencies, several packages can be
installed on a non default prefix, build commands can change based on what
dependencies will be used, etc.
Said that, the goal of jhalfs is try to help you solving packages

There is also two other directories that contains files generated while
resolving dependencies trees.
Now is the time to review the generated book and scripts, making in the
scripts any changes you want to fit your needs. Scripts for aditional
scripts any changes you want to fit your needs. Scripts for additional
packages (i.e., for non-BLFS packages) can be inserted in an easy way.

3. PACKAGES INSTALLATION ISSUES::
In this section known issues with the generated build scripts are
discussed. They are due build procedures and BLFS layout particularities
than we can't handle. In some cases editing the build scripts is mandatory.
You may need also to insert some build script created by you to resolve
unhandled dependencies and/or to remove some script and install the
affected package by hand.
3.1 BLFS BOOTSCRIPTS
For now, bootscripts installation will fail. You will need to edit the
scripts for packages that install bootscripts and fix their installation
command. That could be fixed in the future, but not sure.
3.2 PACKAGES CONFIGURATION
For that packages that have a "Configuration" section, you should to
edit it build script to fit the configuration to your needs.
3.4 PDL and Perl modules.
The generated scripts for that packages are plainly broken and can't
be fixed. You must to replace it by your own ones or install that
packages by hand.
3.4 GCC, JDK, Sane, and KDE-multimedia
On the pages for that packages, the BLFS book actually have instructions
to install two packages. You must to edit the scripts to fix it. We will
try to fix some of them, but may not be possible.
3.5 OTHERS
May have other issues that we are not aware on them yet. If you find
someone, please report it to <alfs-discuss@linuxfromscratch.org>.
