OK, one step further...! I've tried this with 0.9.56 and have exactly the same trouble as with 1.0, so it's me that's making the mistakes! "./configure" and "make depend && make" work no problem, however, on running Code: sudo checkinstall I get the following: Code: Installing with make install... ========================= Installation results =========================== make[1]: Entering directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/tools' make[1]: `makedep' is up to date. make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/tools' make[1]: Entering directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/libs' make[2]: Entering directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/libs/port' make[2]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/libs/port' make[2]: Entering directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/libs/wine' gcc -c -I. -I. -I../../include -I../../include -D__WINESRC__ -DWINE_UNICODE_API="" -D_REENTRANT -fPIC -Wall -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing -Wdeclaration-after-statement -Wwrite-strings -Wpointer-arith -g -O2 -o config.o ./config.c -DBINDIR='"/usr/bin"' -DDLLDIR='"/usr/lib/wine"' -DLIB_TO_BINDIR=\"`../../tools/relpath /usr/lib /usr/bin`\" -DLIB_TO_DLLDIR=\"`../../tools/relpath /usr/lib /usr/lib/wine`\" -DBIN_TO_DLLDIR=\"`../../tools/relpath /usr/bin /usr/lib/wine`\" -DLIB_TO_DATADIR=\"`../../tools/relpath /usr/lib /usr/share/wine`\" -DBIN_TO_DATADIR=\"`../../tools/relpath /usr/bin /usr/share/wine`\" (GIT_DIR=../../.git git describe HEAD 2>/dev/null || echo "wine-1.0-rc1") | sed -n -e '$s/\(.*\)/const char wine_build[] = "\1";/p' >version-stamp || (rm -f version-stamp && exit 1) gcc -shared -Wl,-soname,libwine.so.1 -Wl,--version-script=./wine.map casemap.o collation.o compose.o config.o cptable.o debug.o fold.o ldt.o loader.o mbtowc.o mmap.o port.o sortkey.o string.o utf8.o wctomb.o wctype.o c_037.o c_424.o c_437.o c_500.o c_737.o c_775.o c_850.o c_852.o c_855.o c_856.o c_857.o c_860.o c_861.o c_862.o c_863.o c_864.o c_865.o c_866.o c_869.o c_874.o c_875.o c_878.o c_932.o c_936.o c_949.o c_950.o c_1006.o c_1026.o c_1250.o c_1251.o c_1252.o c_1253.o c_1254.o c_1255.o c_1256.o c_1257.o c_1258.o c_1361.o c_10000.o c_10006.o c_10007.o c_10029.o c_10079.o c_10081.o c_20127.o c_20866.o c_20932.o c_21866.o c_28591.o c_28592.o c_28593.o c_28594.o c_28595.o c_28596.o c_28597.o c_28598.o c_28599.o c_28600.o c_28603.o c_28604.o c_28605.o c_28606.o version.o ../../libs/port/libwine_port.a -ldl -o libwine.so.1.0 rm -f libwine.so.1 && ln -s libwine.so.1.0 libwine.so.1 rm -f libwine.so && ln -s libwine.so.1 libwine.so make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/libs/wine' make[2]: Entering directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/libs/wpp' make[2]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/libs/wpp' make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/libs' make[1]: Entering directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/tools' make[2]: Entering directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/tools/widl' make[2]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/tools/widl' make[2]: Entering directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/tools/winebuild' make[2]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/tools/winebuild' make[2]: Entering directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/tools/winedump' make[2]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/tools/winedump' make[2]: Entering directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/tools/winegcc' make[2]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/tools/winegcc' make[2]: Entering directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/tools/wmc' make[2]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/tools/wmc' make[2]: Entering directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/tools/wrc' make[2]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/tools/wrc' make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/tools' make[1]: Entering directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/include' make[1]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/include' make[1]: Entering directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/include' ../tools/mkinstalldirs -m 755 /usr/include/wine/msvcrt/sys mkdir /usr/include/wine/msvcrt/sys chmod 755 /usr/include/wine/msvcrt/sys chmod: changing permissions of `/usr/include/wine/msvcrt/sys': No such file or directory make[1]: *** [/usr/include/wine/msvcrt/sys] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/csocean/wine/wine-1.0-rc1/include' make: *** [include/__install__] Error 2 **** Installation failed.
