Comment (by matthew at linuxfromscratch.org):

 Fixed the first & second bullet points in r8452.  As for the remaining
 points:

 LFS & BLFS do mention configuration files that may need to be edited
 following installation of a package.  e.g /etc/nsswitch.conf,
 /etc/resolv.conf.

 I'm not sure that package repositories are within the scope of either book
 - we teach how to build a Linux-based system, not how to be a distro or
 how distros supply packages/updates to their users.
