I'm not very experienced, but what is necessary to build packages? I assume one must get the source code, but what then? Is it possible with the tools provided by a standard distribution, what should I understand to manage such a task?
I have compiled things in the past, but always by following instructions (I did build a few Gentoo systems some years ago...) but I can't read and modifiy code (at least not anything like C).
