You already have two fine suggestions, but let me add  
another: checkinstall. I don't have the location to  
download checkinstall from to hand, but a google search  
should turn it up quickly enough. checkinstall is a script  
which runs the "make install" step of a tarball build to  
create either a rpm package, a debian package, or a  
slackware package. For one off situations, it seems to do a  
nice job. YMMV
