That would be an important factor, obviously. If you simply must 
have a thing and there's only one way to get it, then you have to do 
what you have to do.

But my point still holds; if trying to be bleeding edge and 
compiling from source is confusing, bothersome /and/ not required, 
the simplest solution is "well, don't do that". =)
