This shouldn't matter, if it should matter for bitwig, then flea a bug against bitwig. You could configure to chose the location /usr instead of /usr/local. ./configure --prefix=/usr >And this is where the checkinstall, which I did not know about, utility >might be very handy, if it does what it says it can do. > >So your commentary is very good timing !

No! Just keep in mind that Debian and Ubuntu split packages and make install as well as checkinstall don't do this, so your package does replace package.deb, libpackage.deb, libpackage-dev.deb etc. with package.deb only, providing everything. So you need to remove all the unneeded packages [1].
