Reccomdations about using script or custom exporter

[SreckoM]

I am Linux now, and have question, what are the pros and cons of using script compared to custom build.
Custom build has more features, and it exports faster,correct?
Script is more up to date, correct?

What do yo suggest to go with on Linux?

Yes.

Script is more up to date, correct?

Script is a part of custom build and can't run without it. It could be updated separately, but it will run only with the custom build.

So procedure is to download custom build, for linux. And after that update exporter (I did that few times on OSX and exporter was broken after that.)? Will that grab latest fixes you are working on?
I am still not sure what is best way to go here, pretty confused honestly. Have feeling that informations are too scattered.
Is this best to follow https://github.com/bdancer/vb25-patch/wiki/Autobuild , to build my own builds?

Also sorry that I posted this on wrong section, if admin could move it somewhere else ...

Yes, sorry for that.

Well, you could try building yourself, but there were a few issues with building dependencies, have to check it first. What's your distribution btw?
You could also try some nightly build (with "stable" in it's name) like here: https://nightlies.chaosgroup.com/#/blender/20140217 (you could use your site login there)

Oh, that is great did not know that nightly builds are there. I have Vray for Maya and SI but was not using those for some time, so was not checking these builds.
Will try those, thanks!

BTW I am using Ubuntu 12.04 (ElementaryOS).

Same here, so should work fine.
