Why even use releases? Everyone can build everything for themselves. 'Normal Users' are just lazy, everyone wants to know how every piece of software is built for their system, it's not like they have other stuff to do.
I thought that was what Gentoo was doing, but they have far more binary packages nowadays than I thought they'd ever get.
Which you still need to specifically specify. By default everything still has to be compiled.
That's good then. :)
llvm, clang are packages I give 0 fucks about, but take a significant part of my updates. I never really got around to it, but I will try to make them binary downloads instead of building that shit. Like I understand gcc, but have 0 interest in llvm, and can't have firefox without it.. smh
