Binary package hint: checkinstall
checkinstall-1.6.2 can fail package creation because of inability to
create a new directory and or dir/subdir.
It doesn't appear to be that it can't at all, but in most cases it will fail.
Am attaching a simple case - building static x264 where checkinstalled
failed as such
"install: cannot change permissions of `/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig': No
such file or directory"
After manually creating /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig the .deb creation was
successful
Have another Ex. on other pc where it failed to create 5 out of 9 or 10
dir/subdir, though it did create some of them..
Filesystem translation is enabled by default in Maverick, disabling
filesystem translation fixes this issue.
