It will build a slackware package for you while doing a typical 'make
install'; it intercepts what would normally be installed and prepare
the slackware style package for you.  It can also be used to build
debian and rpm packages as well.  It can be found on the extras area
of the Slackware 9.1 disks.  However, that version is the current
production version 1.53 something and the latest beta version, 1.6.0B3
works a lot better as far as I'm concerned.
