checkinstall'ing 27.0.91 fails

[Jordan Wilson]

Hi all,

I'm running Ubuntu 18.04 on x86-64.

I've just tried to get Emacs 27.0.91 on my machine. It builds and runs
as is to be expected, it's just when I try to do `checkinstall' (as I
normally do to install Emacs as a package) it gets someway through the
process and then fails (see the end of this mail).

Build commands:
./configure --without-compress-install
make
sudo checkinstall make install

Thanks,
Jordan.

****  Installation failed. Aborting package creation.

Restoring overwritten files from backup...OK

Cleaning up...OK

Bye.
