Not really what I was suggesting, see below.

Packages, either rpms, debs, ebuilds or any other technology allow you
not only to blindly use them, but in fact you can rebuild them, modify
them source-wise at will or simply be reviewed for seeing how to build
something.

A src.rpm is a collection of source, patches and a specfile which is
more or less a recipe on how to build and install the
sources/patches. So if you want to go the build-from-scratch route,
you can look at how the packages were built, and either manually
repeat the steps or letting rpmbuild do that for you.

And if you need modifications you can do that at package level, too, a
patch usually takes two lines to be added. Finally if your
modifications could be generally useful you can submit the changes
back for the next package update to cover them.
