I would never recommend installing something without |
| 6 |
the package manager's sandbox. And be it just because of |
| 7 |
possible bugs in the makefile which might cause files |
| 8 |
(unintentionally) ending on the wrong place. |

Yet another reason to use an ebuild! You set the USE-flags once, |
| 13 |
and for updates you will have the same things enabled/disabled. |

Fortunately, the palemoon ebuild is well done and passes most |
| 15 |
configure options as USE-flags, but if it is not enough for you, |
| 16 |
you can of course still use EXTRA_ECONF or roll your own ebuild. |

In any case this is better than installing "behind the package |
| 18 |
manager's back". |
