For what its worth, there are a couple of programs that are installed by yum as default in Fedora that I always select to not install and then manually install myself. My reasons for doing this include keeping my hand in at manual installation and making sure I have the latest version (not that they change often). I also install a number of programs I have written that way, too. If someone wants to do this, I think that it is a good way of learning a bit more about *computers* and certainly not something to be disparaged. Some of us enjoy messing about with our PCs. Having said all that, OP: where did you get your tarfile from?
