In general, there are some good reasons to build from source.  You can
get the options you want, not what someone else decides.  It can be a
lot stabler than binary installs (especially general builds like this
one), especially if you have other source built packages installed.  You
can patch/modify the code before building if needed.

On the downside, you need to know what you are doing, get it wrong
and ...
