Comparison with the other two packages shows the problem is that
checkinstall somehow included ./proc/self/coredump_filter in the contents. The
installer fails when trying to create this, of course. A bug has been filed
against checkinstall with Ubuntu Launchpad (#1172711). Fixing this turns out
to be very simple: I deployed the deb's contents using the "Extract Here"
contextual menu, renamed the old deb to *.original, deleted the offending proc
subdirectory from the deployed contents, and finally repackaged the contents
with 'dpkg --build <packagename>'. Worked like a charm.

Thanks for the tip. I'll look into those.
