Re: A GNU Distribution

[Richard Stallman]

    As a user of AUR, I simply pull a tarball containing all the above
    information, from the repository, I untar the package, and modify the
    PKGBUILD for my particular environment, adding or removing flags, adjusting
    the install location, or whatever else I want to customize.  The final step
    is to use the makepkg <https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Makepkg>
    application,
    which run the installation scripts.

Does Arch have no distribution of compiled packages at all?
