I have read in some places that we can make an rpm package

to work. Any hints?


Might checkinstall help?

It might, but in my experience it doesn't. I've tried using it
three times, and each time it bombed out somewhere. I tried for
a few hours to get past the problems each times, and finally
gave up on it. It's a nice idea, but suffers in the implementation.

It's been a year or so since I used it, so things may be better
now, but I can't recommend it.
