7. fonts which come precompiled instead of being built from source (e.g. |
| 11 |
through fontforge) |
| 12 |
8. artwork which is pre-rendered to bitmap formats but originally sourced |
| 13 |
from vector graphics (e.g. KDE icons) |
| 14 |
9. packages which download additional binary things later (Android SDK, |
| 15 |
hplip depending on your printer) |
| 16 |
10. documentation which is downloaded as PDF but not as DocBook/TeX/... sources |
| 17 |
11. ... (I'm sure there are more) |

| I wonder if Gentoo’s devs can do something with the problem. I think |

I believe that Debian uses the term "preferred form for modification" to |
| 23 |
describe/categorize their builds in that regard. |
