YaST will only 'see' those packages which are in the RPM database.  Because 
you installed it from source, it it not in the database and YaST will not see 
it.

What I do is `checkinstall` instead of `make install`.

I even have a script:
#!/bin/bash
#ins
./configure
wait
make
wait
sux -c 'checkinstall --rpmu --install=yes'

Works well for me in most cases. This is just how I make rpm's for myself
(so uninstall is easier) this is NOT the way to put stuff in the database.
