** Description changed: I am using Ubuntu 12.10, attempting to run netkit-ntalk version 0.17-15. - In trying to solve a different issue with this program (listed at the - end), I came upon a suggestion to download the source and compile it - myself then install from that. I've compiled it fine, but when I run - sudo checkinstall I get this error: + In trying to solve a different issue with this program (now solved by + other means), I came upon a suggestion to download the source and + compile it myself then install from that. I've compiled it fine, but + when I run sudo checkinstall I get this error: install: target `/usr/man/man1/' is not a directory: No such file or directory As far as I can tell this directory hasn't been used since Ubuntu 8.04, and is currently (as of 12.10) located at /usr/share/man/man1/ instead. - - Unrelated to that error (I assume), whenever I try to run 'talk' I get - this error: - - [ Error on write to talk daemon: Operation not permitted. Press any - key... ] - - I cannot find any pages on Google that describe this error or any - possible solutions.
