Just wondering, what happens to the system when you remove an installed package or component of a package and replace/update with a tar.gz compiled from source application? Can this break the system -- leading to dependancy issues?
I'm asking because I had to install module-init-tools, e2fsprogs and procps (requisite for kernel 2.6.0) from source simply because I couldn't find the respective deb package or probably the deb package failed on my system. At the moment, the command 'apt-get check' does not report any conflicts.
