It's all well and good that you folks find distro-specific packages easy 
to use but a: Debian's easiness doesn't matter to a person asking about 
RHEL 5 (for which there is no Red Hat supplied RPM) and b: not everyone 
uses packages for their installation making your opinions moot.

Anyone have a solution to the question I asked instead of personal 
preferences?
