Fresh install + recompile apache?

RH9 is pretty old for a fresh installation. For rebuild apache you can do this easily with ./build command in /usr/local/directadmin/customapache
 
Bare with me ... I'm a noobie ..

My question is, will the default installation of DA set up apache the same way as the custom one? won't it be like doing the same thing twice?
 
during the installation of DA the script compile apache for work well with major components. You must recompile it only if you must add something

I believe that DirectAdmin's installation script installs customapache and then builds everything using customapache itself. Therefore, when recompiling with customapache, it would be like doing the same thing twice if none of the sources were updated using ./build update
If sources were updated, then rebuilding will simply recompile the program(s) which will in turn replace the old binaries with the new ones.
