No. I do *not* want to compile my own. We have a very few packages like
that, and we do *not* want to be responsible for worrying and tracking
security and bugfixes and rebuilding the packages, not when we have 170+
servers and workstations to worry 'bout.

I've looked at them some, on the one or two fedora boxes here, and on my
netbook's ubuntu netbook remix, and I *LOATHE* having to wade through

then your definition is a lot different than mine.
