I am a Linux noob and trying to build stuff from sources.

To keep it clean I'd like to use checkinstall but can't find it for Fedora 20 Is this possible ?

If so where is that ?

yum install checkinstall did not return any results

The instructions listed in the link given by @JeffJohnson are not required. Just clone the git repository and the make will work just fine (follow the instructions from the INSTALL file). You can find the link to the git repository here.

There are (untested by me) directions for building checkinstall at http://www.patrickmin.com/linux/tip.php?name=checkinstall_fedora_13
