Well... Rebuilding of package or any software is always a nasty thing
(hell of dependencies & compilers & environment). I don't want to spend
95% of my life with searching for correct dependency version and correct
dependency version for previous dependency, e.t.c.... That's the reason
why people invented thing such as yum or apt.

Next problem is upgrade of the system (=upgrade of dependencies => new build
which does not have to work, because of new features which may need new
stuff you don't know about, so you spend 6 nights just to check what you
really need). Also I'd like to add, that it should be responsibility of
maintainer to keep things running for given platform.

Besides, if the highest version of application in specific distribution
is so old that it cannot work with rest of the distro then it's time to think
about another distribution. (As I said in previous mail, problem is already solved:
Debian+tftp server+pxe... without problem)
