Hello, I have a question. I normally use
apt-get install <package> to install any package on my system. Now I have seen how you can use apt-get source <package> and then compile it own your own machine. Now what I was wondering, is there an advantage to doing this? If so, what is it, and how much of an advantage is it. Also, is there a script of a program that will run an update, see which packages I need updated, download them, build them, and then install them? If there isn't maybe I will start a project that will accoomplish this. Looking forward to your answers, Erik -- Erik Mathisen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://erik.mathisen.us If toast always lands butter-side down, and cats always land on their feet, what happen if you strap toast on the back of a cat and drop it? --Steven Wright
