The issue that you're running into is a hallmark of exactly why source builds (or in your case 3rd party unpackaged binaries) and package management don't mix. You're trying to circumvent the way the system was designed to operate, and then complaining when it doesn't act as you'd expect it to.
This applies pretty much across the board regardless of distribution, whether is use deb or rpm. Use the package management system your distribution provides.
