That's the quandry you get when you run with package based systems. I have the
same problem with SuSE. I usually stay with the packages myself except for
MySQL and then I donload the src rpm and compile it that way.
If you go the compile route, I would recommend http://www.apachetoolbox.com and
do it that way. It has a configuration script where you tell it what you want
compiled into it, and it does the rest. Configures everything, compiles it, and
installs it for you. Worked great with just a few tweaks on my Solaris system
at work, but then again, it's geared and written for the Linux OS. :)
