Unfortunately, a 'make install' typically installs without updating
the RPM database, so you won't see anything through rpm, even
though the install has taken place.  You have two choices:

(1) Proceed, using the --nodeps and/or --force flags on rpm
    when installing new mrproject rpm.

(2) Locate and install 'checkinstall' - a program that you
    can use in place of 'make install' when installing files
    obtained from tar files instead of rpm files.  checkinstall
    converts the installation into an rpm-based installation
    so the RPM database gets properly updated.

Hope that helps!
