Many GNU programs support this.
I prefer checkinstall: http://asic-linux.com.mx/~izto/checkinstall/ You can create easy-to-uninstall rpms very easy: ./configure make su -c "/usr/local/sbin/checkinstall" Then you have to answer a view questions and checkinstall creates a *.rpm - files which can be easily removed with "rpm -e packet.rpm"!
