Only if you are unwilling or unable to understand rpm spec files and the mechanisms involved in building software packages (automake, autoconf, libtool etc.) should you use a super cluge like checkinstall.
I'm too lazy O:-)
Believe me, it's really rewarding if you can do without checkinstall as you have far more possibilities, including using a build root for installing a package so that you don't install into the running system when you build the package.
I believe you, of course! X-) But unless I see a nice howto, of the "for dummies" type, I don't think I'll try. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
