compiled-from-source packages not seen by tazpkg

I have a couple of programs installed from source either because the slitaz repo didn't have them or there was a newer version availible. One of these packages is wine, i have 1.4.1 installed. I tried to install winetricks using tazpkg and it tells me wine is not found and goes on installing wine 1.2.3. I have another problem which i think is related: I'm trying to install pulseaudio from source, and it doesn't find one of the dependencies which i have installed (also from source). How can I make tazpkg see the packages I installed from source (like wine) ?

or should I do something else to fix this problem?

[c]tazpkg block[/c] program.name

Prevents tazpkg from overwriting a custom or different version of a program that exists in the repo.

When a program is installed from source that isn't in the repo requires another program installed from source that isn't in the repo then tazpkg isn't involved.

If you successfully configure/make a program on the computer you will be using it on,with the build depends on the system,then the depends the program are linked to are present.

The program should start/run with no errors.
