Re: apt-get source?
Refer to man page 'apt-get' and edit /etc/apt/sources.list.
Sequence is something like:
apt-get update # update package list
apt-get source # with the appropiate --compile option
'install-somehow' # obviously, I am unclear here.
However, it says manpage of apt-get says the sources lists aren't managed. Is there some way to improve this? I really like using capt/apt-get to install packages. If I could do this with sources then I could optimize when compiling, right?
