Umm. Last time I looked (the other day), checkinstall has _NOTHING_ to do
with where stuff is installed, that's the configure script.  If when you
configure (default is /usr/local) you say --prefix=/usr, then checkinstall
(which invokes make install) will put things in /usr.

Understand how things work.
