Dear Dick, Nothing to do with that, the directory I use is the default one ~/kicad-sources. The reason why "sudo rm" it is needed is because the "sudo make install" writes "install_manifest.txt" inside build/
The user is not building any protected dir because sudo is just used in the rm command. by the way, you might want to to change the "make" with "make -j 4". Sensibly faster on modern machines. again, glad to help.
