I use Fedora and have it set up for building rpms. Plenty of advice on
the fedoraproject.org site about this.

I download the .bz2 tarball into ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/pan-<version> then
expand the .bz2 into the same folder and remove the 'v' in this
new folder's filename so it reads pan-<version>.

In this folder I run:

./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr

then move up to ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/pan-<version> and run

tar cjf pan-<version>.tar.bz2 pan-<version>/

You can use a pan src rpm from a Fedora repo and install it, you should
then have ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/pan.spec which can be edited with a new
version and release, I usually use 0.1 for the release so it will be
overriden by Fedora updated rpms.

I then install this new rpm with:

sudo dnf install ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/pan-<version>-0.1.fc37.x86_64.rpm

which is x86_64 on Fedora 37 which the rpm build process will create
for you.
