You cannot really stay current on binaries but you can gradually
convert your
binary installation to a self-compiled one. You said above that
your *main*
machine was a laptop with insufficient harddisk space and CPU
power. That
implies you do have at least one other box. You could keep the
one called poke and peekworks on all unixes i've found so
far. pretty inexpensive, but not free. peek allows you to watch,
and the poke part lets you take over. or you can use vnc with a
particular argument to share the :0 display.
