Lfs-utils (0.3):
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~winkie/downloads/lfs-utils/
The Lfs-Utils package contains some miscellaneous programs used by various packages, but are not large enough to warrant their own individual package.
Installed programs: mktemp, tempfile, http-get and iana-net
Installed files: protocols, services
mktemp creates temporary files in a secure manner. It is used in scripts.
tempfile creates temporary files in a less secure manner than mktemp. It is installed for backwards-compatibility.
The http-get script takes advantage of a little known feature of bash called "net redirection". It is used to download from websites without using any other programs.
iana-net uses the http-get script to simplify the process of procuring IANA's services and protocols configuration files.
