Any progress to make checkinstall work under opensuse 11.2?. I miss it.
No, it is broken by design.

Mmm... he has been saying that for ages, he want us all to use the buildservice for our private builds.
And Cristian is doing this by good reasons. Cause the checkinstall approach does not lead to an as consistent results as a freshly set up chroot environment does. The openSUSE Build Service and the used tool chain ensure such a clean environment.
For the record, I just managed to create an rpm (for poedit) with checkinstall. It can be made to work.
Sure. You made it work for you and maybe for two or three additional systems. But it's our goal to have this is a system which offers versioning and collaboration. In addition I have to stress that your private builds do not require to upload and share them at software.o.o. You're able to build locally without pushing anything to the server.
