I am sure my problems here are due to my lack of understanding of the whole build process.
This is a clean install of a RasPi, so no sudo config has occurred. My normal method of install was - download the file from SourceForge to my desktop. Copy it to the RasPi and move it to /usr/local/src/ sudo tar zxpf owfs-version cd owfs-version sudo ./configure sudo make sudo make install My user on the Pi is 'control'. I have added control to the staff group, which is the group for all the /usr/local/ directories and can now configure and make, however I still get an error with make install as I do not have permission for the /opt/ directory, which has owner and group = root. Is there a way around this or do I still have to sudo make install?
