[plug] Compile new Kernal

[Simon Scott]

	Well, its not really *just to keep the package manager happy*.... If
you installed from source, it just wouldnt work (more than likely), so I
guess in this instance the package manager has saved him from hours of
tracking down strange bugs.

	Ha, see how package systems truely can be a pain in the butt
(particularly 
	RPM)

	Now this poor person is going to have to download 15 or so megabytes
of 
	libraries to update a program that was only a few 100 kilobytes in
size, just 
	so the RPM manager stays happy.

	Sorry to reignite the flamewar, but I just couldn't resist it ;-)

	Have fun,
