no that's not actually that correct
different distributions may compile things in vastly different ways
the choices during configuration are endless
use different configuration directories etc.
also subtle differences between different compilers or different
versions of glibc may make binaries for one distribution incompatable with another distribution
i don't use rmps but i think there are no such things as generic rpms
but if it ain't broke go for it !
