The only reason for me installing packages on repo is easy to
update/upgrade.  I also prefer download/install packages on their
official sites selecting the directory on the OS where I prefer
installing them, at my own control.  I seldomly do it now after ceasing
building my own Linux/Unix OS, LFS, couple years ago.


The advantage on building my own version OS is avoiding installing the
packages which I never use.  The OS is quick to boot.


Others noted with thanks
