Yes, but in the majority of cases RPMs are useable on various systems, for exemple a Mandrake RPM could be installed on RH and SuSE and well as Mandrake. Have a look at rpmfind.net
A good thing to do before installing such a package is issuing:
% rpm -qpl filename.rpm
NEVER ever forget to run rpm --scripts -p as well, to see what commands are running as root while you're installing the package... Volker
