Title:
  checkinstall failed to create symlinks in deb package generation due
  to the bug in the cmake in ubuntu  24.04

Status in cmake package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The following cmake version as part of ubuntu24.04 creating a deb
  file(through checkinstall after cmake and make) and could not able to
  create a symlinks for library files inside the deb package

  These are the details:
  #cmake --version
  cmake version 3.28.3

  #dpkg -l | grep cmake
  ii  cmake                                  3.28.3-1build7                       amd64        cross-platform, open-source make system
  ii  cmake-data                             3.28.3-1build7                       all          CMake data files (modules, templates and documentation)

  When we download the cmake, the same version from the following git repo and we could not see this issue.
  1. curl -sSL -o cmake-linux.sh https://github.com/Kitware/CMake/releases/download/v3.28.3/cmake-3.28.3-Linux-x86_64.sh ${'\\'}
  2. sh cmake-linux.sh -- --skip-license --prefix=/usr ${'\\'}
  3. rm cmake-linux.sh

  All links are getting created. This is true and deb package creating
  from the source after cmake and make and checkinstall --noinstall
  command.
