we have to semi-manually start a binNMU (Debian slang for: Leave the source untouched, but rebuild the binary package). We have a script that detects which packages need to be rebuilt, which I run occasionally or when I have reasons to assume that it is needed (usually, you know that you broke some depending packages). The user can then not upgrade or install the broken packages for a day or two. We never build something on the users machine. After all, we are not Gentoo ;-). Well, besides the documentation index :-) Greetings, Joachim -- Joachim "nomeata" Breitner Debian Developer nome...@debian.org | ICQ# 74513189 | GPG-Keyid: 4743206C JID: nome...@joachim-breitner.de | http://people.debian.org/~nomeata
