Package: checkinstall
Version: 1.6.2+git20170426.d24a630-3+b1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
When using cmake build with checkinstall I see 'No such file or directory'
error,
even when file and folder actually exists.
git clone https://github.com/dpayne/cli-visualizer
cd cli-visualizer
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
checkinstall
file INSTALL cannot copy file
"/media/axet/128GB/local/cli-visualizer/build/vis" to "/usr/local/bin/vis":
No such file or directory
If I run 'checkinstall ./123.sh' and copy this file using 'cp' command it works
and deb fill will be created.

Changes:
checkinstall (1.6.2+git20170426.d24a630-6) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Bump standards version to 4.7.4
* Add loong64 support (Closes: #1085196)
Thanks wuruilong for the patch! loongarch64 has no __xstat() to
intercept, so the patch wraps stat(), lstat(), fstatat() and mknod()
directly.
* Make filesystem translation work against a current glibc, which covers
most of what has been reported over the years as --fstrans=yes being
broken (Closes: #1051180, #1116590):
- Intercept the stat family through the symbols glibc exports. glibc 2.33
turned stat(), lstat(), fstatat() and mknod() into ordinary functions,
so a library defining only __xstat() no longer sees the stat calls that
binaries in the archive make, and every tool that stats a path before
acting on it was told the file did not exist. The loong64 wrappers
above are needed here too, so the condition guarding them is the glibc
version rather than the architecture.
- Intercept statx()
- Perform linkat() on the translated paths. It linked the paths it was
given, so the hard link was made against the real filesystem even with
--fstrans=yes
- Intercept __open_2(), __openat_2() and their LFS64 spellings, which
_FORTIFY_SOURCE substitutes for open() and openat()
- Intercept the mkstemp family, which opens its file through an internal
call the open() wrapper never sees
* Stop backups from destroying symlinked directories such as /lib on
merged-/usr systems (Closes: #1107638):
- Resolve symlinks in the parent directories of a path before mirroring
it into installwatch's backup tree, so restoring that tree over / can
no longer replace a symlink with a real directory
- Don't back up files on a read-only access() call
- Pass --keep-directory-symlink to tar when restoring a backup, as a
safety net
* Record installed files under their real parent directories, so that a
package built from an install writing to e.g. /lib/systemd/system ships
/usr/lib/systemd/system and drops the aliased paths
* Take option values as given rather than re-evaluating them through the
shell. Values holding shell metacharacters, such as
--maintainer="Jane Doe <[email protected]>" and
--requires="libc6 (>= 2.28)", now reach the package intact where they
used to be dropped without a word (Closes: #785441)
* Keep installed files whose path merely contains the name of the build
directory. The check that finds them anchors its pattern, the one that
dropped them did not, so building in /myapp also excluded
/usr/include/myapp from the package (Closes: #1033483)
* Fix the ld.so.conf guard in the postinstall script written for
--addso=yes. It used "&>", which /bin/sh reads as a background command
plus a stray redirection, so the guard never held and the library
directory was appended again on every install (Closes: #892985)
* Look for the shared libraries under the build directory when --addso=yes
is given. checkinstall asked file(1) about their final absolute path,
where filesystem translation leaves nothing, so it recognised no
libraries and wrote no postinstall script
* Drop "install -o root -g root" from the upstream install target. It fails
under dpkg 1.22.13 and later, where a package that leaves
Rules-Requires-Root unset runs its binary targets without (fake)root
