So you are proposing something more like a BLFS approach? Where packages
or steps are installed as per users personal tastes? That is what I was
thinking of too, pretty much. Also, how do the differnent procedures work
together, and have you noticed much/any incompatibility with other
programs no longer compiling? I must admit I am new to this, so feel
free to throw me some links and/or just RTFM's and I'll try to get up
to speed.
