Why does the survival kit currently suggest to build Rack from sources rather than downloading the binary? Are there any practical advantages? (or is it just not up-to-date?)
hola mixer!
it is a kind of random tutorial for new linux users, I started installing repositories, then, software from the repo, for a downloaded .deb, a .sh from the command line, and finally compiling, but it could have beed how to compile a Zynaddsubfx, or a vcv rack plugging.
but there are some reason to compile a software by yourself,for instance, you can have and try the last version of the software (at this point it is not necessary since the v1 have no new release ), or to make the software perfectly fit to your hardware or to enable an special feature, like jack in the v0.5 and so on.
I will rewrite these, I should do for the v2, for now the leonardo’s guide is the best
