GNU Source Installer

GNU Source Installer

~~GNU Source Installer (sourceinstall) is a source package installer and manager for Unix-likes which provides configuration, compilation, installation, tracking and removal of source packages. It offers both a command line and a graphical interface, and works best with packages prepared by the developers using a recent version of the autotools. For an experienced user, this sofware provides a way to centralize source installation, keep track of already installed packages and their relevant files, check installations for consistency, export and reuse installation information and have enhanced uninstallation. For the novice but interested user, this software also offers a way to gain confidence with the command line (yes really), the file system, the traditional Unix commands, and of course with common source configuration and installation procedures and options.~~
