Are you not using the Gentoo mirrors? Please check your GENTOO_MIRRORS setting.

Yes, I didn't notice this. Now it can work after setting GENTOO_MIRRORS.

In addition, LFS-BOOK-8.2-NOCHUNKS.html has been deleted upstream. Is this a bug?

I think it's a minor bug (ideally SRC_URI would be extremely stable but I guess it's okay if upstream remove old versions after a few years - at least it's mirrored) but I've just bumped to the latest version upstream.

tbh I often think bugs like this are useful if nothing else because they help us identify users who need to use mirrors :)

Given we will stabilise and cleanup this version in due course, I'm inclined to just call it WONTFIX or INVALID given it's reachable by mirrors. Thank you!
