ctr0.o is actually a system library. I *think* that the software
expects it to be in /usr/lib but ends up not finding it in the fake
environement for install. It may be set as a prerequisite for some
install command and it fails because it can't be found.
Try to locate the offending prerequisite and kill it (most likely by
patching). You can be assured the package will find that file on
every system.
