About

Synopsis

Sorcerer is a source-based Linux distribution. Source tarballs are downloaded directly from software project homepages or as patches when an old source was previously downloaded. They are compiled for the architecture and with the optimizations that the system administrator specifies. Finally, it is installed, tracked, and archived for easy removal and upgrades. Sorcerer has both command line and menu driven source mangement programs.
