I am a retired Sysadmin who fully understands all the frustrations brought about by the SW installation without real control. Although only for my
system, I regularly build a SW package (RPM) for SW, which is not in
distribution. Which is actually quite easy. So I always have a clean system and can be very easy to update or delete. However, this is less and less
necessary as more SW is available.

My guess is that it's only easy after you have done it a few times.

This is a matter on which I would really like to be wrong.
Could you point me at directions?

What guidance do you need?

Will this be enough?

I'll get back to you on that.
My recollection is that I looked it up once
and the urge to make an rpm went away in a hurry.
That was a while ago.
It looks like things might have gotten better.

Just possibly off topic here, but quite some time ago I was playing around with python and needed a package (I don't remember which one it was) that wasn't installed, so I used pip3 to do the install and it installed a python 2 version into python 3, hence the package failed because of differences in the print function. Has anybody else encountered this issue, I'm suspecting a badly created package, but just wanted to confirm that it wasn't more widely spread, that if it was a defect within pip3 under certain conditions that it has been rectified?

regards,
Steve
