checkinstall already do the same.
But be carefull, it not always works and will not install the files in the right place most of the time.

I wrote it exactly for being "safe" (no root rights needed)
it's far from being perfect, of course. To be honest, it's quite raw

the SLACKBUILD method is more "formal" and it's very good for making packages to be shared.

Mine is more oriented to a "personal use", so you can quickly make a package without having to prepare a slackbuild.
