Ok, after investigating a bit further I found some lines in the toplevel Makefile where "install" is told to set the group and ownership to "root".
Why do we need to tell "install" to explicitly set those ownership rights? ...since one has to be root or belong to the root group to be able to install alsa-driver, or, if one wants to make and rpm the %defattr(-,root,root) macro tells rpmbuild to set the ownership to group "root" and user "root" of all the files in the rpm. -- Registered Linux user #298569 The world really isn't any worse. It's just that the news coverage is so much better. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: INetU Attention Web Developers & Consultants: Become An INetU Hosting Partner.
