[Gmod-help] Re: gbrowse

Aaron,

Sure thing on the source install. That seems the only option for now. 
We've been using RPM/yum for many years, and performance is nearly 
flawless. There are far, far fewer issues than we had doing it the old 
way. (Granted, the distros are better quality now.)

Thanks!
Tom
