With source distributions, I mean Linux distributions like Gentoo, and
others, where part of the installation process is to compile everything
using flags to make an OS that fits your computer very well. What put me
off using Gentoo, was mostly that it took at least a couple of days to set
up a system with a full desktop. D is so much faster to compile, that the
installation likely would become much more endurable.
