Mark, I just read in the Sept Linux journal (p94) there is a tool called checkinstall - the Tech Tip starts "If the program you want to install doesnt have a package for your distro, you can use checkinstall to make one." See http://asic-linux.com.mx/~izto/checkinstall/
I've never tried it, but it might be worth looking into ...
