The simplest approach seems to be to install to a scratch directory, then
build the package from there. So unpack a tarball from `make dist' and
then do this:
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
make install-strip 'prefix=$SCRATCH_DIR/usr'
For one of my projects I added a rule to build rpms to Makefile.am using
this approach. I've attached a slightly simplified version (the full
version build sub-rpms). A similar approach will probably work for any
package manager which can make a package without having to install it.
One wrinkle to consider is that human made packages often have scripts to
run before and after both install and uninstall. I suspect it's going to be
hard to do this in a package-manager independent way.
Cheers,
