我现在有一个文件名为：rarlinux-3.7.1.tar.gz 我要把它装进去，去哦是这样的：
river@river-desktop:~$ checkinstall

软件包将用下面的值来创建：

0 - Maintainer: [ river@river-desktop ]
1 - Summary: [ okkk ]
2 - Name: [ river ]
3 - Version: [ 20071123 ]
4 - Release: [ 1 ]
5 - License: [ GPL ]
6 - Group: [ checkinstall ]
7 - Architecture: [ i386 ]
8 - Source location: [ river ]
9 - Alternate source location: [ ]
10 - Requires: [ ]

输入一个数字来改变它们，或按回车键继续：9
输入备用源码位置：
>> /linux/downloads/rarlinux-3.7.1.tar.gz

输入一个数字来改变它们，或按回车键继续：10

我输入10以后，还提示我输入一个数，本人就不行了。
rarlinux-3.7.1.tar.gz的位置为 /linux/downloads/rarlinux-3.7.1.tar.gz

有些东西是可以不添的，最后两项都可以不用的，直接enter就是了。就是以后在用这个deb包的时候不会提醒你它要的依赖软件罢了。

比如到了上面那一步，不输入任何东西，回车，显示什么什么就失败了，然后就退出引导了。

要用sudo运行，我运行的过程，命令行中-D是生成deb包，--install=no是不安装:
sudo checkinstall -D --install=no
