Hi,
I see this in checkinstall:
===
INSTALLCMD=("$@")
[ -z "$INSTALLCMD" ] && INSTALLCMD=(make install)
...
shell_escape "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" >> $TMP_SCRIPT
cat << EOF >> $TMP_SCRIPT
# Report success or failure
if [ \$? -eq 0 ]; then
exit 0
else
exit 1
fi
EOF
# No one needs to see what we are doing. It's safer this way.
chmod 700 $TMP_SCRIPT
echo
echogn "Installing with %s..." "${INSTALLCMD[*]}"
...
$TMP_SCRIPT &> /${TMP_DIR}/install.log
===
so it looks to me that checkinstall may call "make" itself under
some circumstances. I apologise if I am reading it wrong.
Thanks,
James
