Like Jens said... If you really want the answer for how to do geeky things 
like compiling go to http://tldp.org and you will find a virtual paradise of 
geek information. It's not so much a difficult thing as a learning experience 
about new ways to do things. It may be useful at some time, but getting the 
packages already built is by far the easiest solution.
