I roll out some RPMS, specifically when there's no RPM available. You've
seen me announce Quanta's RPMS and similar stuff in this list before.

What I do is follow the "7-Steps-RPM generation HOWTO":

- Get (wget) the source code  (tar.gz)
- uncompress the files
- ./configure --help
- ./configure --options --that -I --need  (/usr/local/bin vs /usr/bin
and thinks like that)
- make
- checkinstall -> select RPM/DEB/TGZ, provide description, check License
and release
- Done!


I've wrote an article (in Spanish) about this topic:

Checkinstall is available here:
