yes, there is, and it's called 'apt'.
It's debian's default package manager, but it's available for RH systems
as well.

If you're using debian, you can just add:
  deb http://sincerity-forever.lcs.mit.edu/~cananian debs/
  deb-src http://sincerity-forever.lcs.mit.edu/~cananian debs/
to /etc/apt/sources.list
and do
  apt-get build-dep gnumeric
to get everything you need.
