A quick google should give you some nice places to find such
information; however, Fedora Packaging Guidelines might be what
you're looking for. also, you can have a gander at some simple spec
files for some packages that are an easy ./configure && make &&
make install sorts.

The above link is from rpm.org and may or may not be what you're
looking for.
