From a security perspective I am not going to be held waiting for Red Hat to release a new version or patch. I install primary packages from source, this allows ME to decide when I want to install a new version. It also allows me to have more control of the features that I am installing with a package, not the ones that others have decided to be useful. Some people prefer the upstream approach, I personally do not. Just my opinion, this is the advice that I give to even our Junior sys admins. The attackers that actually know what they are doing, know that people wait for a patches from the vendor; these are the people that I am worried about recieving attacks from. hmmm... telling someone to compile programs from > source, isn't that like telling them to shoot their > own foot with their sever?
