How up to date is this?
When trying to learn by copy-pasting from the internet, I sometimes get tripped up over older/newer Linuxes using different versions of commands or best practices. (e.g. ipconfig vs. ifconfig, iptables vs. successors)

Distrowatch's package list can give you an idea of what version numbers to expect: https://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=lfs https://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=lfs Once you get to the BLFS part, you have more choice on whether you're going to innovate or use something that old and in maintenance mode. For example, it has instructions for both Pulseaudio and Pipewire, Xorg and Wayland, SysVinit and systemd. The instructions will rarely be outright incorrect on modern distros unless something is very strange about your environment, since a bulk of the work is done after establishing a more predictable build environment.
