About a week ago I had to add the Python module 'packaging' to LFS in order to build 
'wheel'. Currently we also have it in BLFS. It is mentioned for glib2, three packages 
in Python Dependencies and five packages in Python Modules.

The question is whether we should remove 'packaging' from BLFS.  We do have several 
packages in both books: vim, libcap, and Python, but those are there to provide extra 
functionality that can't be built in LFS without a lot of additional dependencies.

Generally BLFS depends on all the packages in LFS being present, but the transition 
from BLFS to LFS may be a problem for some users, especially if the package needs to 
updated.

What do you think?
