"Almost all Linux distributions rebuild upstream software from source" On Gentoo et al, the end user does the building. OK, yes the ebuilds are recipes but I've lost count of the times I've used epatch_user (https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki//etc/portage/patches). You have a near infinite choice of ways to destroy your system, what with USE flags, mixed stable/unstable and all the other crazy stuff. Despite that, my Gentoo systems have been surprisingly stable. In winter an update world session on a laptop keeps you (very) warm 8) (wrt "Context": Ta for your work) |
