  What it does is create an rpm from the tar.gz or bz file, then
install the rpm and enter the program into the yum database.

Of course, if you have an rpm package to begin with, just do a local
install and then it'll be entered into the database.  'yum localinstall
<place where rpm is>


but still, it wont make the app auto update

@tony

You can create your own rpm for it, but unless someone maintain
updated packages in a repository... you wont be able to update it
automatically. You still need to download the tarball and recreate the
rpm ..
