I'm not sure about SUSE as I'm on CentOS, but my guess is that you're not running this as root or using sudo. That's why it's giving you the permission denied error.

Looks like the advice here pertains to your problem. Try it and let us know, it should help fix it.

On the mailing list of checkinstall, I was taught of two solutions,
which I am posting for the sake of helping other people experiencing
the same problem:

1. add the options below to the command checkinstall
checkinstall --fstrans=no --exclude=/selinux

2. add the line
EXCLUDE="/selinux"
to /usr/local/lib/checkinstall/checkinstallrc
