That will maybe result in a lot of library problems on different 
linux-os versions and distributions. I prefere compiling on my system :-)

I got this answer weeks ago :-) Yes, I have no idea how git works, I 
have no idea what files I have to "check out" from what and so on. Is it 
possible to write a README/HOWTO where I can get a step by step 
introduction what I have to do on my system to get the complete sources 
to compile on my system? The result should be the same as on the old iso 
cd. It was so easy to mount the image file and simply enter one command. 
  Now I have to start reading with git :-(, maybe downdload a complete 
repository and what else... I only want the actual! versions... compile 
them... have fun. Please help!

Thanks
  Klaus
