Feature changed by: Dean Hilkewich (deanjo13) Feature #312756, revision 4 Title: Installing Opensuse Distro with YAST from source openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Elmar Haag (hans_linux) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: I would like to see a installation option in YAST that would allow me to install update a installed system from source. Maybe using the following steps: 1.) Do a normal install from the distribution DVD or a Network install and configure the system as required. 2.) Optionally download the sources for each library and application, compile with user specified complier flags, such as CFLAGS="-mtune=native - march=native -O3", MAKEOPTS="-j5" etc. 3.) Replace the original vanilla libraries from the distribution DVD and their updates with the complied applications. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: The advantage would be a system optimised for the specific hardware on which it is installed resulting in best possible performance for application that are compiled with the same compiler optimisation flags. + Discussion: + #1: Dean Hilkewich (deanjo13) (2011-08-20 18:26:35) + Why not use OBS for that? -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/312756
