Right. That's another pitfall of most source distributions (ie. the Python sources from python.org) compared to system packages (ie. the package built from a source RPM or equivalent system source package). If you want a really quick solution to this which seems to work much of the time, look at checkinstall: http://asic-linux.com.mx/~izto/checkinstall/ This tool will make system packages by taking control of the usual build process, and you can then install and uninstall those system packages.
