Re: Installing from SOURCE or from RPM: your recommendation

[Yuriy]

IMHO, best way is building RPM from the SOURCE with fine tuning and 
install it.
Download the RPM from mysql.com and just issue command:
"rpm -ivh MySQL-xxx.rpm" is wery easy & instant solution.

Hi group?

What do you recommend someone who wants to install MySQL on RedHat?
Using RPMs or installing from SOURCE?
What are the main differences and/or benefits?

Thanks,
