Yes there is Paul, _provided_ the source tarball has a make target for creating an rpm.
First you create the rpm then use yast to install it.

I've just installed the latest version of xine-lib from source and found that all my video apps were still using the old one (specifically kaffeine was the player I was most intent on using at the moment).
I used yast to remove the xine-lib, kaffeine, multimedia3-video-xine and totem packages and then installed xine-lib from source again. I then tried to install kaffeine with yast but I got a dependancy error on xine-lib.
At the moment I've got kaffeine installed and working by installing from the latest source tarball but I was wondering if there was any way to let yast know that I've installed xine-lib myself and I don't need to use the one on the dvd. I'd like to have you and yast able to update my media players and I'd quite like if my kmenu had the icons regenerated too...
Thanks for reading my ramblings
