Depends on the people. RPMS are not that difficult to build. I normally take source autoconf/automake packages and convert them to rpm. There's a more or less straightforward recipe to do that. Well when you're use to it it takes 5 minutes to do that. So with rpms, I can track better which files are in my system and where. :-) So RPMS are not that much of a headache. With kind regards, Didier. --- PhD student.
