Okay, just checking. I just wanted to be sure it would pick up a manually installed rpm. I like rpm and I have had very little issue with it before but as was stated, YUM would at least handle dep issues.

Yes. But it's better to use yum all the time. It's more safe, easier and without any dependancies problems ;)
Yum uses RPM for most of its handy-work. In the end, it doesnt matter if you install an rpm by hand or with the yum tool. Yum just makes things quicker and easier.
People usually dont get into real "dep hell" with RPM unless they "use the --force, Luke."
