Hi
When I saw the following checkinstall error messages [1], I tried to update my checkinstall. But, I realized that the errors are still not fixed [2].
Can somebody confirm that checkinstall is still broken?
Is there alternative solutions?
I noticed a package obsoleted by checkinstall named installwatch, but that one is not usable either:
% installwatch -o filename make install cp subs blib/script/... make: *** [blib/script/...] Segmentation fault
thanks
