Nice for packaging too. -BjörnP On Thu, Jun 06, 2002 at 05:23:10PM +0200, Tim van Erven wrote: > On Thu, Jun 06, 2002 at 04:50:55PM +0200, Kolja Koester > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi, > > is there a way to install licq without being root? > > I' ve alrady used 'configue --prefix=~/bin' but this did not work. > > The 'normal' way is to use 'configure --prefix=~'.
