I just did: git pull && ./configure && make all && sudo make install There were no files owned by root in my ~/source-oem/rust subdirectory. I use "source-oem" for other people and vendor's source.

Thanks for the report. It's probably https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/13728. This is an easy first bug to fix if somebody wants to jump on it.

I then did: ,.configure && make all && sudo make install The sudo make install worked, placing tge rust programs in /var/local. However, it also left almost 4000 files behind in subdirectories under the rust directory in my $HOME and they are owned by root. I do _not_ consider this to be a nice thing to do. These are the rust/tmp subdirectory and the others are scattered under rust/doc. The file containing the output from: find rust -user 0 -ls iis 464K in size, 3959 lines. compressed with xz, the compressed size is 43K. I was going to attach that file to this email, but then felt that would be unkind and likely violate forum rules. So I have created a public gist on github. It is here: https://gist.github.com/JohnArchieMckown/69104fcfde6835eb4d9f Thanks for listening. ___ Rust-dev mailing list Rust-dev@mozilla.org https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/rust-dev
