Looking at the checkinstall site, it seems the program is normally run as root anyway - as Philipp also implies - so I'm still confused as to why it has stopped working and therefore been removed?
Actually, I just checked and it is included in factory (checkinstall-1.6.1-72).
I'm very confused now. I'll have to boot factory and test if it works or not.
You are probably not the only one that is confused. From what I can workout from both threads involved there seems to be issue with checkinstall and setuid settings which possibly is only a problem if someone is doing something a little odd. Which does not sound like grounds for dropping it. I think what we need to know is whether it is going to be in 11.0 (and if not are there any plans for a replacement) so we can stop chasing our own tails. - -- ============================================================================== I have always wished that my computer would be as easy to use as my telephone.
