Hello Reindl,
I tried your suggetsion on 3 packages:
labplot-2.0.0.alpha3.tar.bz2
dwg2dxf-2.1.tar.gz
scidavis-0.2.4.tar.bz2
For all of them the compilation fails when doing rpmbuild --ba
exactly the same way as I previously did, ie "manually"!!!
This is only an option when the packages have been properly built and
in that case you do not have to worry, the packages are available
through you!!!
Regards.

Anyway, I was able to find a package qtiplot compiled for fedora 18.
I would have even try to rebuild from the sources if I could fine
compilable sources!
If there was a straight way of doing the job, I would have do it!
man rpmbuild
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_an_RPM_package
this is really no rocket science
i use a lot of things whiche are not available
in a RPM form BUT my rule is
* NEVER install any binary outside of RPM
* NEVER build any software as root
* NEVER call "make install" to screw my systems
* ALWAYS use rpmbuild/SPEC-Files with a dedicated user
* ALWAYS generate src.rpm packages and archive them for later
there is no single reason to act any other way
if something can not be packaged clean ina RPM
it can not be installed in a clean way at all
and this way i am able to work with a fedora setup over
many years with dist-upgrades and you can be pretty sure
any of my machin e sinstalled with F) years ago are as
clean as a fresh install because it saves me a lot of
troubles make dist-upgrades and do the cleanups and
perfection of the config/envirnonment while the machines
are in production instead start twice a year from scratch
