No. I usually do my "make install"s as root, but that's not necessary. You can
"make install" to your home directory if you wish. There's a configure flag

Did not know that, thanks.
And yes, I know that this is a sensitive topic to discuss ...
Yes, and unfortunately sensitive topics usually produce unproductive
discussions ;-).
Despite this, anybody interested in the "make install" thing may provide
a patch for supporting this. I can put this on my list of open points as

build environment revision project.
- this could very well be one of the most prominent reasons for Windows
success in both worlds, the open source world and the commercial world.

Not sure about what you say, but in any case doing both ways does not
hurt... ;-).
Agreed.
Thanks for your explanations and comments, I am enjoying the discussions
... :-)
"me too" ;-)
Thanks for your openess.
