With the kernel, I don't worry about it. It's a short enough compile, and only once a week or so even when I'm following the RCs, that it's really not that worth it. I DID set it up with a script so it grabs the CFLAGS out of make.conf before it compiles, tho. I figured I might as well. If you like, we can start a new thread about that, and I can outline the whole scripted kernel setup (and the couple of patches I apply using the script), that I've created to pretty much automate the process, here. There's only one step that I haven't actually automated, the actual sources download, but I was thinking about automating that the other day. Everything else, verifying the signature, moving the kernel and signature file to my kernel archive, untarring the sources and applying the couple trivial patches, running make old config, running the compile, doing the install including mounting and unmounting /boot, even invoking the editor on grub.conf, all scripted, invoked with just a couple commands. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
