Hello all,

Well, I configure --prefix=/usr a library, then make it, then use checkinstall to build slackware. After installpkg the resulting package, some files are left in / , they are symlink to the original library files.
I can always rm these links without breaking installation but I find it is weird.

I view the package content with pkgtool, but can 't find any file in the list installed in /, all the paths are good (files are in /usr, following my wishes by configure --prefix=/usr)

The script corresponding to the package installation does not tell me so much (just a list of certain files to rm)

I would know what is the correct slackware package build procedure with checkinstall but for library only (for programs, works well).

For procedures for package building you might want to check www.linuxpackages.net they tend to have some good how-to's on their site.

Well I already visited this site but anyway, thanks to not let this thread with 0 reply
