Thanks for the quick response!

Checkinstall controls the make-process and builds a .deb-package that
then can be installed, updated and cleanly removed using the debian
package manager. It is used instead of >make<.

Just tried it, but I got the same result: checkinstall gave the
mentioned error and did not build the .deb-file. Lyx2.0 is
installed though I did not install it using dpkg.
