I'm trying to save the guy's ass so he gets a working server with least effort
least effort *now* but in 3 years on that machine...
and you're suggesting he change distro
no, i just said if you bypass the package management, bring manual downloaded packages from unsafe 3rd party repos if you enable them unconditional in the mix youre defeating the whole purpose of RHEL
make RPMs when he already has trouble deciding if optional packages ar required or not? Lets be real...
rebuild the src.rpm with a new tarball answers that question because it specifies dependecies, even for the build itself
Pls stay in your hole
wow
and allow me to get this guy off this thread
so allow me to make clear that bypass the package managagement over the long may not be a good idea - building a RPM the first time may take longer but it keeps your setup maintainable for many years
there is a difference between *you* as upstream developer knowing all the pieces, dependencies and programming language very well and a ordinary enduser
