Hi, I have a box with a cd-writer which also acts as a file/print/internet server, so I run stable (just to be on the safe side). Now I would like to have cdrdao, but that is only available for testing. Of course, I could recompile the whole thing from source and be done with it, but I'd like to do it 'the Debian way'. So:
apt-get source cdrdao gets cdrdao from testing (I set up apt with stable and testing and APT::Default-Release "stable") but when I want to compile it, it wants to have a bunch of libraries, especially for the GUI. I don't mind to install them all, compile the whole thing and then only install the cdrdao package (without the GUI) and consider it a waste of bandwidth, CPU time and go on with my life without caring. BUT, 1) Is there a simple way to install the packages needed to compile cdrdao? (I tried apt-get build-deb cdrdao, but it bailes). 2) Maybe even more important, is there a simple way to get rid of _all_ installed packages which I only needed for compiling cdrdao and won't need since I won't use the GUI?
