On a more serious note, how does updating apps on gentoo work? I understand that everything is built on your system, but then if the app is updated, do you need to re-compile every time?

    do you need to re-compile every time?

    emerge compiles for me. I never have to run make myself.

    And now there’s the official binhost. Not even emerge needs to compile.
