Homebrew sounds kind of confused. Having a non-root user have access to make global system changes sounds like privilege escalation vulnerability by design. However putting that aside, it is fairly standard for software to provide two directories for extensions/modules/plugins/etc. One for distribution-built software such as /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/ and another for sysadmin customizations such as /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp. The same idea as /usr/share/perl and /usr/local/share/perl or with Python or anything else. -- greg -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
