CheckInstall monitors and manages files installed by make install or similar processes.
The CheckInstall software is an excellent tool for anyone who is looking to keep track of all the files that are installed during the "make install" process or its equivalent. This software creates packages that are compatible with Slackware, RPM, or Debian which makes it easy to remove or distribute packages.
Once CheckInstall has completed the installation process, it will create a Slackware, RPM, or Debian compatible package that can be installed with the appropriate command. This means that you can view the package contents with pkgtool, or remove it with removepkg without any hassle.
Another great feature of this software is that it will leave a copy of the package in the source directory. This means that you can install it on any other computer without having to recompile the software all over again.
Overall, the CheckInstall software is a must-have for anyone who needs to keep track of installed files and packages, and wants an easy and efficient way to remove them or distribute them to other devices. It is a great tool for anyone who is looking to simplify the installation process and save time.
