I can't make packages with checkinstall any longer, it has failed on two
diferent packages:


Carlos,

I use checkinstall often. I'm running opensuse 11.

1. First I run it like you did

$ ./configure
$make
#checkinstall


2. If it give you errors I do the following

$./configure
$make
#make install
#checkinstall
#make uninstall

Yes, that's what I'm doing. Almost. If checkinstall fails, I run "make install", then "checkinstall". If I do the clean then checkinstall fails again.

Another method: install an rpm from the previous run, then run checkinstall, uninstall previous rpm, install new one.


Another one, way more tedious but cleaner: create each path checkinstall complains about by hand.
