Is there any advantage to using RPMs to install applications other than the presumed ease of installation? Is there any difference in the installed product and how well it integrates into Mandrake?
Whenever I see RPMs offered they invariably specify that they are for Red Hat specifically and often one version of RH. The Mozilla download for example says "RPMS for Red Hat 7.x". Is it reasonable to assume that if it is an RPM it will work equally well on Mandrake even though it is described as being for Red Hat X.X specifically? Any other comments or advice on the subject would definitely be welcome. LTR
