I personally prefer to install it by compiling the source myself. It's not
hard. and then I can control what modules/features are compiled into it. So
you will understand what features you have enabled rather than just
installing everything. I can also install it in a central location as the
distro installs the files all over the place. Nothing wrong with that as
thats how system packages are supposed to be installed, but doing it
manually you can control where on disk it is installed and know everything
is in that one directory. Creating and registering a linux service also
isn't difficult and it's good to understand how those things work anyway.
