lfs-dpkg fork started

I've gone through the LFS process several times now, and recently I've started 
integrating dpkg into the process (pretty much along the lines of the dpkg 
hint, though I came up with it independently).  During the last time, I 
decided to start writing down the steps formally, so for the few packages not 
supporting DESTDIR I wouldn't have to keep rediscovering what to use.  And I 
thought, what better way to record it than by editing the book sources.

So, the process has been coming along a bit slowly as I learned the docbook 
format (mostly by copying examples from elsewhere in the book).  Anyway, I've 
gotten up through the end of chapter 5 now, and I thought I might as well post 
my work so far in case anybody else might be interested.  In addition, I would 
hope that even if you don't like dpkg, anybody using some variant of the 
"fakeroot" installation method might find it useful as a reference.

I do realize there's little chance of this being integrated into mainline, 
though, according to the comments in the "Package Management" section of 
chapter 6 - which is why I posted to lfs-chat instead of lfs-dev.

It's based on the SVN systemd branch.  Locations:
