It's not a question of whether you need to tweak the sources or not, it's just a matter of convenience. Ease of installation. I wouldn't run half of the "ports" i'm using if i had to compile/install them manually, where installing a "port" makes it that easy (and orthogonal). -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
