RPM's are prebuilt by the developers for each Linux distribution, with specific extensions of their choice. You just install them and you are done.

There is no "normal apache rpm" available. All RPM's are made specific to the distribution in question (i.e. RedHat has one, SuSE has one, Mandrake has one). You can often install the RedHat RPM's on other distro's (especially ones like Mandrake which are close cousins of RH), but why would you want to? > > As I have already installed a normal apache, what would happen if I > installed the WebCatalog with --nodeps? Would I need to change anything > after I've installed it. The post-install script for WebCatalog will not run properly because it is looking for specific behavior present only in Apache's installed via RedHat's RPM (for example). My advice is delete the Apache you built and install the actual RedHat RPM's, then install the WebCatalog RPM. A manual install is not something to be done on a lark, and I cannot help you more than point you in the direction.
