This is all new to me so please bear with me.

First , downloaded and installed ,
and  RPM package manager reports:-
libcheckinstall-1-5.5.1-3.i586.rpm
checkinstall-1.5.1-3mdk.i586.rpm,   
so check install successfully installed. I think.

Second, downloaded and extracted from tar balls:-
xine-lib-0.9.8,
compiled with ./configure, make, and checkinstall,
xine-ui-0.9.8
compiled with ./configure, make, and checkinstall,

and RPM package manager reports:-
libxine0.9.8-4mdk
xine-aav0.9.8-4mdk
xine-0ssv0.9.8-4mdk
xine-pluginsv0.9.8-4mdk
xine-xv v0.9.8-4mdk
Not sure which package is the main programme,but generally
seems to be all there.

However, unless I got the wrong end of the stick ,I thought
I was supposed to also find the RPM build from tar balls  packages 
themselves in /usr/src/RPM/RPMS/i586, but if so something else has 
happened, because they ain't there.
During the checkinstall process there was something about 
./doc-pac needed shall it create one, I said yes,presumeably,
some document directory,but otherwise I cannot see that I created
any RPM package files from tar balls . However, have I misunderstood 
the nature of the checkinstall programme.  Can someone enlighten me
please.

thanks,

John
