It is not normal for autotool's based projects to have make targets for
packaging in distro-specific formats like .rpm or .deb. This is
something that distros add when taking upstream source from a git repo
or source tar balls.

In the case of SyncEvolution, there is a "make deb" target. It's meant
to be used as part of the nightly testing and depends on CheckInstall
being installed. Your mileage may vary.

You are probably better off learning how to build a .deb package and
doing that the normal way - see Debian HOWTOs.
