And note that starting from a tarball doesn't prevent you from getting the
advantages of RPM database management of the package. You just have to
rebuild the package on your system from the tarball. Set up a
"buildmeister" user for building RPM's and run "rpmbuild -ta xxx.tar.gz" to
rebuild the binary RPM from the tarball, tuned to your system. Check the
last month of traffic on the rpm mailing list at Red Hat for details.
