Where is some howto explaining ins and outs and options to managing programs compiled from source under debian?
Clearly, one reason to choose debian is apt/dpkg/dselect, et al. However, as we know, some programs may have to be compiled from source. It is also clear to me that such self compiled programs are not known to the package management databases and, therefore, are susceptible to being broken by subsequent package manager installations, &c. So, I am wondering whether or not there is some best practices already written to address these concerns.
