[CentOS] Alternatives to checkinstall?

I am reviewing some work that I did in June and forgot to take notes at the time. For some reason I have a nagging suspicion that for this job I used a package builder other than checkinstall but for the life of me I cannot recall the name.

Now, the case may be that I actually did use checkinstall in which case not remembering the name of non-extant software is expected. On the other hand I would like to remove any doubts on the matter. If any of you have suggestions for viable alternatives to checkinstall for installing source packages on CentOS-5 as rpms then I would be much obliged. If I did use something else then perhaps seeing the name might trigger the memory.
