+The Linux Standards base (LSB) specifies the binary
+interface between an application and a runtime
+environment. This paper discusses the LSB Development
+Kit (LDK) consisting of a build environment and
+associated tools to assist software developers for
+building/porting their applications to the LSB
+interface. The developers will be able to use the build
+environment on their development machines catching the
+LSB porting issues early in the development cycle
+reducing overall LSB conformance testing time and cost.
+The associated tools include the application and
+package checkers to test the LSB conformance for
+application binaries and RPM packages.
+
+This paper starts with the discussion about advantages
+of using this build environment and how it simplifies
+application development/porting for LSB conformance. We
+use the standard Linux/Unix chroot command to create a
+controlled environment to keep check on the API usage
+by the application during the build to ensure 100\% LSB
+compliance. After discussing the build environment
+implementation details the paper briefly talks about
+the associated tools for validating binaries and RPM
+packages for LSB conformance. The paper concludes with
+a case study about the usage of the build environment
+as well as the associated tools.
