v12.2-2

• Added stage 3 for building dnf
• Added podman container for building individual packages after stage3
• Removed final configuration stage. Files found in the fs directory are now copied into the root filesystem and this is sufficient for now.
• Removed lfs_{build,install}_{begin,end} macros in favor of more specific macros (discard_docs, use_lfs_tools)
• Removed lfs user from bootable image, use root account with no password instead
• Added sub-packages for man pages, documentation, and language files.
• Added pre-release versions to early RPMs to allow for easy upgrading when more flushed out builds are available
• ./lfs mkimage command now requires a path to an filesystem tarball to use
• Fixed bug when multiple versions of a RPM appeared in the build artifacts
• Added additional environment file for pod building
• Added shlib macro for shared libraries

v12.2-1

• Update base fedora image to version 40
• Use vendored spectool for use on Ubuntu
• Build tested and working on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
• Added make install to place build artifacts for libvirt use
• Added LC_ALL=POSIX for stage 1.
• Install POSIX locale in stage 1c for perl build
• Rename 'config' stage to 'final'
• Export stages directly to build instead of through tmp
