./configure

checkinstall
Only if you are unwilling or unable to understand rpm spec files and the mechanisms involved in building software packages (automake, autoconf, libtool etc.) should you use a super cluge like checkinstall. Believe me, it's really rewarding if you can do without checkinstall as you have far more possibilities, including using a build root for installing a package so that you don't install into the running system when you build the package.
