Subject: sudo make install
Date: Tue, 14 Apr 2015 21:46:05 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87pp76wl1e.fsf@web.de> (raw)
Hello,
I noticed that since some time, "make install" does compile stuff in the
emacs/ source dir , just like "make". I remember that it only used to
copy files into the installation target dirs.
My question: when I want to "make install", I need to use "sudo". But
after that operation, the emacs/ source dir now contains files owned by
root. After that, I always need to be root to "make" Emacs. I don't
want that, I still want to be able to "make" as a normal user.
How do others handle this?
Thanks,
Michael.
