Package: checkinstall

Version: 1.6.3


checkinstall 1.6.3 does not generate .deb file


The cause is:

TRANSLATE=1

is set in /etc/checkinstallrc

With this setting checkinstall does not actually touching your system,

therefore it does not generate .deb file.


I read following patch in the source package.

0002-Change-default-configuration.patch


I think:

--------

  # Are we going to use filesystem translation?

-TRANSLATE=1

+TRANSLATE=1

--------

should be:

--------

  # Are we going to use filesystem translation?

-TRANSLATE=1

+TRANSLATE=0

--------


Add "--fstrans=0" option can be workaround.

However it is inconvenient.


I believe this has been fixed in the latest
checkinstall 1.6.2+git20170426.d24a630-7 (or newer). Could you please test
it with TRANSLATE=1 and let me know?

Thanks!

Stephen
