So I stemmed my urges to upgrade from RedHat 6.1 to 7 because of the
impending release of 7.1.

My question is this: How much is this upgrade going to suck given that i
have not installed all of the software on this machine via RPM?  I have
one or two packages that NEED to work which were compiled and not RPM'd
most of the rest can limp for a few days without it causing a problem.

Comments?  Suggestions on steps to take to curb the suckage?

Word.
