Fix for Knoppix Install Components utility
This has been broken for a while, maybe nobody has reported it?
When you go to Menu>Preferences>Install Components and try to install something, nothing happens.
Today I decided to look into it, and found that the problem is actually in /usr/sbin/checkinstall.
This patch fixes it (at least for me):
Code:
# wget -O - http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17126237/checkinstall.patch | patch -p0
These are the contents of the patch file for those interested, only one line is changed:
Code:

Hopefully somebody finds this helpful
