What are the downsides to getting the source code and doing the build/install myself vs. using a pre-built package other than I'm responsible for noticing the software needs to be updated? The latest example is ttcp http://nuttcp.net/nuttcp/latest/ has 8.1.4 https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/nuttcp has 6.1.2-4 If I ever decide to go with the debian package I just uninstall the software I built and .. anything else that needs to be done before installing an official package? TIA Lee
