    It would probably be considerably easier (and useful for future 
    situations) to just grab the Source RPM and put the recompiled binaries 
    with the lfs option enabled and rebuild it that way.  Then just do an 
    upgrade on the package, and with any luck, nothing will break on you.
    
    Rebuilding RPM's from source if relatively easy, here's the quick howto:
