Take matters into your own hands!Compile from sourceTraditional compilation, download package, ./configure [option]Or if you use linux OSes with powerful build tools (e.g. ABS forArch, emerge/ebuild for Gentoo)Specify specific features/options to be enabled duringcompilation, e.g. in PKGBUILD for arch
