Hi David,

so if you're installing a new package as another unprivileged user (which you >normally do when following the hint.)

Why is it required that building of a package be done as an unprevilged user? I saw this indication in the Book too ("Now as root user issue the following command...") but never bothered to investigate. I tend to automate my install of most 'sub-systems' such as kde etc and have always been doing configure and make as root. Am I doing something wrong?

Would be obliged to be put wise.

Thanks
