Yes. [x]vile is highly configurable, both at compile time (as well as
at run time), so it makes more sense to build it yourself. Still, if
you really want an RPM, they are out there.
The configuration line that I use to build xvile is
./configure --with-screen=x11 --with-perl --with-builtin-filters
After that, you do
make
make install
BTW, the reason that binaries *are* provided for non-unix systems
is that most users lack the tools necessary for building vile on
these systems.
