You need to build your own RPM's for stuff that isn't already packaged
or for software that you want special optimizations or options.

It's more work than the alternatives for a single server.  If you need
to install and maintain software on multiple servers it's rather
nice, though, especially if you setup an apt-rpm repository.

Keeping everything under package manager control certainly makes
long-term administration of a system a lot easier.
