Dear Debianists,
I installed apt-build on a laptop (amd 64) (I am running Jessie amd64
installation).
I am still learning about it.
It asks you to choose the optimisation setting.
I chose native.
But I suspect that was not right.
I then did apt-build install efl.
and it found the source

Never use dpkg directly if you don't have to. Apt-get and aptitude are
both good frontends with similar capabilities. Which one you use is
mostly a question of personal preference. Only wh

Hello,
I'm a Debian Squeeze new user and have some basic questions about
Debian package tools.
Is it true I should avoid APT and use some other frontend or, better,
dpkg directly?
I tried aptitude, but I don't like ncurses-based tools. I prefer the
classic command line if possible.

The reason for the "testing" installation is because I read that it quit
stable and that sarge holds old and not updated packages.
It is quite stable, but just 'quite'. Sarge was released in June this
year and is not old. It is updated as far as security is concerned.

I have read about sites offer PHP5 for use with Sarge.
1) Is there a downside or risk associated with these "unofficial"

2) A more academic question I'm curious to know: Why doesn't the

Thanks.
