That's another viable option. In my case, I actually was going to try
that route, but I didn't know where to look in Cooker for source RPMs. I
was just browsing a Cooker mirror in Galeon, and all I saw were
binaries. So, rather than spending a bunch of time trying to find the
SRPMs, I got the RedHat binaries.

When I was little, I went into a pet shop and they asked how big I'd
get.
