What was the problem with checkinstall? I believe checkinstall aims at allowing you to uninstall or eg. rpm -ql. It does probably not aim at writing pretty spec files. (I have not even looked at them, or if I have, I have forgotten what they looked like.) In this sense it has worked for me. If you maintain a source package I would recommend that you learn to write spec files the hard way. It is not that hard.
