  <title>Needed Patches</title>

  <para>In addition to the packages, several patches are also required.
  These patches correct any mistakes in the packages that should be
  fixed by the maintainer. The patches also make small modifications to
  make the packages easier to work with. The following patches will be
  needed to build a CLFS system:</para>

  <para>In addition to the above required patches, there exist a number of
  optional patches created by the CLFS community. These optional patches
  solve minor problems or enable functionality that is not enabled by
  default. Feel free to peruse the patches database located at
  <ulink url="&lfs-root;patches/"/> and acquire any additional
  patches to suit the system needs.</para>
