One of the 'selling points' as a big reason to use open source is that you can fix problems or add features on your own by rebuilding from source. If, in fact, you cannot rebuild a src rpm and get a working copy then in that respect you might as well be using closed, proprietary software. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com
