    5 * You can have some trouble if the source directory's path has white spaces in
    6   it, when building rpm packages or Slackware tarballs. These problems are
    7   caused by bugs in the packaging applications used in those systmes (Namely
    8   "rpm" and "installpkg"). Checkinstall makes it's best effort to work around
    9   these bugs, but you should try to avoid source directories' names with spaces.
   10   There's no problem when building Debian packages, though.

   12 * Some directories are not removed when removing a checkinstall-generated
   13   rpm package.
   14 
   15 * The installwatch library seems to have some problems with glibc-2.2.1. You
   16   should use glibc-2.2.2+
   17 
   18 * There are problems when using installwatch and libsafe together
