Hi guys,
I went to the rpm.net site and downloaded the checkinstall rpm now I get
this after double clicking the file and typing checkinstall at the prompt.
Checkinstall 1.4.1 Copyright 2001 Felipe Eduardo Sanchez Diaz Duran
This software is released under the GNU GPL
The checkinstallrc file was not found at:
/usr/local/lib/checkinstall/checkinstallrc
Assuming default values.
I cant find /usr/local/bin/installwatch.
I cant continue. Either install installwatch or modify the INSTALLWATCH
variable in this script, then run checkinstall again.
Ok...so I get the point that Installwatch can not be found. The mandrake
cooker website shows that it is one of the files installed and now I dont
see it anywhere. WHat am I doing wrong with this RPM?
TIA
Todd

Hi Todd,
You can find it at http://www.rpmfind.com. Just search
for "checkinstall" (no version number) and the cooker
version should pop up at the top of the list.
If you still have trouble, here's a direct link to the
file:
ftp://rpmfind.net/linux/Mandrake-devel/contrib/RPMS/checkinstall-1.4.1-1mdk.
i586.rpm
