Well, package dirs should be equal packagename-version and should not contain
spaces. But I can confirm this bug in Lucid.
Did a test with mediatomb:
Downloaded sources using apt-get source mediatomb
installed build-dep using apt-get build-dep mediatomb
renamed the 'mediatomb-version' folder to 'mediatomb version'
autoreconf -i + ./configure
checkinstall
failed with the following error:
Building file list...OK
/usr/bin/checkinstall: line 1772: [: /home/andreas/bzr/mediatomb: binary
operator expected
/usr/bin/checkinstall: line 1875: cd: /home/andreas/bzr/mediatomb: No such file
or directory
** Changed in: checkinstall (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Confirmed

Checkinstall cannot create a package if the current directory contain space in
name
