What version of Checkinstall? I'm wondering if it's a known issue that's been fixed. Current version is 1.5.0, released November 18th. The release notes don't mention anything explicitly, but not all changes make it to the release notes. There's a mailing list now (created December 5). You didn't, by chance, mention the issue on there, did you?
