<hr/>
|
|
|
|
<p>Mainly because of tikarability, security and customisation, binary distros
|
|
don't give you as much control over your system customisability,
|
|
for example some software might be compiled with features you don't want
|
|
in the kernel and the source based one just requires some feature disabled
|
|
so you could get it, with binary ones you cannot. For example if you wanted to get
|
|
vim with no python support in source based distros you'd just disable it
|
|
where in binary ones you cannot and vise versa. I also like the customisation
|
|
of it because some packages won't work without systemD because of the
|
|
way they were built. Also if the binary built has some odd memory leak
|
|
you can't make it go away until the next update, but if you compile everything
|
|
then your binary will be unique. And few more things, like optimisation,
|
|
every binary you build even better if you pass certain flags to it.</p>
