Package: checkinstall
Version: 1.6.1-2
Severity: normal
This is due to the os.listdir function. Installation scripts usually use it
whereas this function doesn't work if the --fstrans=no isn't passed.
An OSError exception is raised, reporting there is "no such file or directory":
$ checkinstall -d2 --nodoc --maintainer jm -si --install=no -y \
> python -c "import os; print os.listdir('/')"
