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. -- "None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free." -- Johann W.
