It's only a benefit if using Linux unless there is rpm for Solaris and FreeBSD

FreeBSD uses ports. NetBSD uses pkgsrc (this is also ported to other
systems). some linux distros have their own package mgmt tools.
How's Courier in pkgadd :)
I typically run --prefix on my courier configures and install these under one
directory like:
/usr/local/courier
That way, I just tar up the whole /usr/local/courier and replicate across the
nodes in a cluster.
No need for RPM in my case.
Indeed. one should use (consistently) the pkg mgmt tool that is used on
his system. rpm is not even universal in the linux world.
