What are > other factors, please? I don't know about ebuilds, but RPM's are insanely easy to build if you know how. I mean, you can tear off a huge collection of RPM's in a very short time with a bit of knowledge of the spec file, and technically generating your own RPM's = compiling from source anyway (I did 5 packages yesterday in half an hour, though I doubt they'd fit the project's guidelines...). I much prefer RPM to other systems I've used to handle this sort of thing, because they're easy to make and easy to use. -- Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments.
