I don't care. It fits our uses. Not yours, because you are a dev. Ours. Carlos, if you don't care, why not just compile into a home directory and put that directory into your path? That way you don't risk corrupting the rest of the system, and you don't need checkinstall.
That defeats the purpose of the simplicity (and most of Carlos's post) of checkinstall. Even suggesting this 'path' ad nausea makes for dulled over eyes on new users to linux. Yes, cli is good to know, but if it has to be *that* complicated to know how to change path and such!
Oops. Forgot that there was more to checkinstall (which I've never used) than just compiling and installing into system directories. Sorry. jp -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
