Yes, this is what I was talking about, not getting the source and
compiling/installing from source alone.

The only issue you may run into here is the distribution's affinity for
the repository over locally installed packages. I ran into that when
building tOra with Oracle support. I don't recall how I solved it, but I
believe there's another step that fixes the changelog so that your
version is a little newer than the repository but not so new that you
miss updates.
