Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!  Another idiotic statement from a total
idiot.

It may be true for YOUR generic and security-crippled OS, but
not mine.

My system is composed of close to 500 packages that are highly
customized.  About 95% are automatically built be Gentoo Portage
and the remainder are automatically built by my own custom
scripts.  But to download all the source files and then build
everything from scratch would require maybe 12-24 hours (that's
just my estimate since I never had to do it).

A restoration from backup would be the easiest and quickest
method.

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!  The supreme idiocy continues unabated! 

_I_ am the absolute expert in digital audio.  YOU are the digital dunce
in everything.

I will offer no further comments because you could never comprehend.
