What is a good list of software to use buildpkg on? 2. Once you decide those packages, where do you put the list? Surely I do not wish to use buildpkg on every installed package, a few or maybe the entire @system. I have not found the answer to [1] or [2]. This is muddy, because supposedly the "profile" is suppose to protect the key packages for --depclean ? [2] default/linux/amd64/10.0/desktop * So is gcc protected somehow by the "profile"? I think not...... Still googling but not find any clear answers, mostly cruft from years ago.... James
