Needing to use sudo in chapter 5 should be seen as a very strong warning
signal that you've done something wrong. And that's because by giving
the lfs user ownership of $LFS, that user should have the ability to
write to anything it *should* be writing to. As such, a permission error
is often a sign that it's trying to write to somewhere outside of $LFS -
i.e, somewhere in the host system.
