[HTCondor-users] Preferred htcss installation method

[Matthew T West <m.t.west@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

Why is the projects preferred installation method via compiled binaries 
rather than building from source? Not saying I disapprove, as working 
with an .rpm repo makes my life easier but so many other research 
computing projects expect one to build from source. "I am able to pick 
up bug fixes faster if I recompile source" is a common response.

I am just curious about the htcondor teams mindset about this.

Again not complaining, just curious.

~ Matt
