better way for optimizing packages

[Jerry Haltom]

Make a shell script for it. Use mktemp -d to make a temporary directory,
export the variable, apt-get build-dep package, apt-get -b source package,
dpkg -i *.deb.

You'll notice building a package creates .deb files.

Synaptic won't notice the packages. You might add to your script to put
the packages on hold.
