There is no magic "I'm a bad boy, I know, let me play as root" flag. ;)
But there is in file /usr/lib/ubuntuone-syncdaemon:
# check we're not running as root, or have explicitely and in
# length expressed our desire to do so
if not (os.geteuid()
or options.im_ok_with_being_root_pretty_please_let_me_be_root):
die("Please don't run the syncdaemon as root.")
Must be :
# check we're not running as root, or have explicitely and in
# length expressed our desire to do so
#if not (os.geteuid()
# or options.im_ok_with_being_root_pretty_please_let_me_be_root):
# die("Please don't run the syncdaemon as root.")
Why must be ?
Because Linux is free.
Free.
