The Linux From Scratch community announces the release of LFS Version 12.4-rc1. It is 
a preliminary release of LFS-12.4.

Major changes include toolchain updates to binutils-2.45, glibc-2.42, and gcc-15.2.0. 
In total, 48 packages were updated since the last release. One package, packaging (a 
python module) was added and one package, check, was removed. Changes to the text 
have also been made throughout the book. The Linux kernel has also been updated to 
version 6.16.1.

We encourage all users to read through this release of the book and test
the instructions so that we can make the final release as good as possible.

You can read the book online [0], or download [1] to read locally.

In coordination with this release, a new version of LFS using the systemd package is 
also being released. This package implements the newer systemd style of system 
initialization and control and is consistent with LFS in most packages.
