Same build/install procedure works with p136.

Problem doesn't seem to occur on RHEL 5.3.

Doesn't happen with a plain make install either. I'd be interested to know what's going on, though.

Similar issue on squeeze, to reproduce simply:

./configure --prefix /opt
make
checkinstall -D make install

Error output:
