Managing software (rpm or self-compilation)
Hi,
Regarding managing software: Using rpm (and it's graphical
implementations) is very easy and comfortable, but I prefer compiling
everything I can for performance (and stability?) reasons.
First, does it "pay-off" to do that? I mean compiling even small app.
to KDE. Is performance really improving.?
Second, I guess that compiling the basic KDE bundles is good, but is
there a way to avoid using "--nodeps" on every small KDE package I
would like to install ever since? (cause KDE isn't registered in rpm
database).
Third, is there a managing tool for software compiled and installed "by
hand" ? (for querying and info.)
Thank's
