i hate to play devil's advocate (yet again), but with a source install
time of ~ 5 mins, do rpm's really offer any advantage whatsoever over
installing from source?

i install everything from source and i never have problems with
dependencies or upgrades or any mess like that.  i'm admittedly very
weak on my rpm knowledge, so i'm not trying to be a jackass by asking
this question -- i really just don't see the advantages to rpm's (and
i can think of a few disadvantages).

holla.
