Why not, Eric? That's what most of us do. If it's not available in the
distribution I'm using, I find it, implement it, and make a note for my
next build.
That I'm curently using RH 5.2 for configuration control
notwithstanding, I still prefer, in general terms, Slackware. The RPM
functionality just happened to appeal to me, since, in general terms, I
use Linux as a requirement to get things accomplished rather than to
play with kernels.
It's not worth getting snippy over.
