Assumed Robert should decide to use CentOS, while he likely is
accustomed to build DEB packages, if needed, then 'checkinstall' often
can be used to build a DEP or RPM package. Usage of checkinstall is as
easy as editing a PKGBUILD for Arch. IOW, assumed you want to switch
from your DEB based to a RPM based distro very easy, if needed, try
using checkinstall (as replacement for 'make install'), when there is
the need to build a package.
