My guess is people uses LFS as a learning experience and, if they want to roll
with a source based Linux distribution, then roll with Gentoo, Crux or, maybe,
KISS or CARBS.

Realistically speaking, if you intend to use an Operarting System for something
other than play you need some infrastructure for installing or building
packages.

How do you manage software upgrades? Have you adapted a package or ports system
to your installs? If I wanted to rock with LFS I would consider NetBSD's
pkgsrc... it would be a cheap way to include a packaging/ports/software
management system on a minimalist Linux distribution.
