I believe that everything you said concerns to original TSL RPMs, but
not for third-party (such as RH) RPMs. I don't think that one may feel
safe using RPMs from other distros. The initial question was exacly
about non-original RPMs. I'd advise to build software from source if
it is not in TSL RPMs.

# wc -l < /var/log/rpmpkgs
312

We really use TSL's RPMs, it is really useful and easy, but for many
years we have a local rule that every software which listens a port
(i.e. accesible for everyone from Internet) should be customizely built
from sources. Our policy claims that it's more suitable...
