Gotta disagree with you Troy....
A well managed system is one that is all RPMed...
Nothing worse than application code splattered over a file system (what's that... you installed to /usr instead of /usr/local/app or /opt/app).
Particularly when you have 100 odd servers... and you only spend a few hours a month on each....
I do believe this is why we have: http://www.jpackage.org/

Peace to all....
Cheers,
Matt.

As someone who deploys a lot of tomcat/mod_jk instances, I agree 100%. Certain things are better off non-RPM'd for easier up/down/crossgrades, and the java tools (jdk, ant, tomcat, etc) are great examples.
