What I wrote wasn't clear and wasn't strictly true, sorry! When manually building from source: You always build/test as a normal user. You install as either root or normal user, depending on the install prefix. When doing Debian package builds: You always build/test as a normal user. You always install using fakeroot. -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
