Is there an advantage to using portage for ut2003 over the CD's?

i'm not certain with regards to ut2kx, but i know that with unreal-tournament, the ebuild does not provide the manifest.xml needed by some larger mods, namely spatialfear. it's just a file listing the location and size of all the files in the installation in some odd format, but without it some things will not install. if you're using only ebuilds to install add-ons, or if you only umods and/or ebuilds, all should be the same. but if you download a large mod with its own installer, it may not work.

wish i could give more info, but that's the only difference i can think of.
