What is the rationale for doing what they did?
I could argue that if you follow the instructions contained in "INSTALL", which say you should run "make install", it works nicely. I have no idea what "checkinstall" is, and why you think you should run it, so I'm not *that* much interested to see why it is broken. > A reply from whomever who wrote the programming code would be much > appreciated.
