It most assuredly does. The book provides the exact command for applying each and every patch needed to build LFS just like everything else.

I believe that you forgot to chown

In the top post there is only the last lines of a much larger string of errors.

Looking at the top of this error list would have shown you that the directories that later errors complained about being missing failed to be created.

This would most probably be because a changing of the ownership of the sources directory had not been made.

This explains why sudo worked. root has permission to write in anyones directory that is writable.

1)Create the sources directory.
2)Ensure that the sources directory and all its contents are owned by the user performing the build.
3)Enter the sources directory.
5)Be the build user
6)Get tarball
4)Untar the tarball.
If the second step is not done properly then the sixth step would produce the errors that were observed

Read the instructions, redo from start, and have fun.
