I want to share with you a problem I encountered while I installing bash-3.2 (5.15 book v. 6.4)
I got the following error:
PHP Code:

make: [install] Error 2 (ignored)
After some research, I have found out that this error is related to Russian language support.
Since I do not need Russian language support, I have changed some things so there will be no Russian support.
I have removed the file /mnt/lfs/sources/bash-3.2/po/ru.po.
In /mnt/lfs/sources/bash-3.2/po/Makefile I removed all reference to ru.po and to ru.gmo, and reinstalled.
This worked for me.
Here is the diff from the original Makefile:
PHP Code:

< POFILES = en@quot.po en@boldquot.po ru.po
< GMOFILES = en@quot.gmo en@boldquot.gmo ru.gmo
< UPDATEPOFILES = en@quot.po-update en@boldquot.po-update ru.po-update
---
> POFILES = en@quot.po en@boldquot.po
> GMOFILES = en@quot.gmo en@boldquot.gmo
> UPDATEPOFILES = en@quot.po-update en@boldquot.po-update

< CATALOGS = en@quot.gmo en@boldquot.gmo ru.gmo

> CATALOGS = en@quot.gmo en@boldquot.gmo
