Package: thinkpad-source Version: 5.8-4 Followup-For: Bug #242133 Why is this report marked as "wontfix"? I think it is a good idea to allow building modules without requiring to be root. All other modules I tried to build with module-assistant (nvidia, fuse, loop-aes) don't require the user to be root or write anything outside the home directory of the user.
Please make the thinkpad modules buildable without requireing elevated rights. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Kernel: Linux 2.6.14-2-686 Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages thinkpad-source depends on: ii debhelper 5.0.7 helper programs for debian/rules ii devscripts 2.9.10 Scripts to make the life of a Debi ii gcc [c-compiler] 4:4.0.2-1 The GNU C compiler ii gcc-4.0 [c-compiler] 4.0.2-5 The GNU C compiler ii make 3.80-11 The GNU version of the "make" util Versions of packages thinkpad-source recommends: ii dpkg-dev 1.13.11 package building tools for Debian -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
