Hi Brandon, It's totally fine to use the yum repo: http://cloudstack.apt-get.eu/rhel/4.0/ There is also a repo for Ubuntu
Compiling from source is not required and mostly geared for developers. Also note that all apache releases are *source* releases. The binaries are provided by third parties as convenience for the community. So by all means, do use the repo.
