Hey guys,
Thanks for all replys. As I see, every distribution has their own pros and cons. For me I'll stay atm on debian - maybe I'll do a mixture of debian and ubuntu - as stan said, in ubuntu are all pre-requisites done for torrus. :)
At the end, every sysadmin need to know by himself, why he uses his "own" distri. ;)

Stable, compatible and quick on patching critical stuff.. I have never trusted Ubuntu on my servers maybe its because of the great with desktops etc..
Never been a fan of debian..

AFAICT from that list, you'd be fine on openSUSE too. Still, nothing wrong with untar+config+make :-)
Yes, very wrong. Maintainability goes trough the floor. Or are you sure not to miss a security-relevant update in an insignificant program like tar? Or any other program or library which might be a dependancy of the software you're compiling?
And if you're compiling yourself, because the package in the distribution is too outdated, make packages, and name them after the same scheme as the distribution. That way your package might be upgraded automatically if the distribution ships a newer one.
