Hi,
I like to install the entire MythTV build as a standard user (e.g. mtv),
therefore when building I use something like:
./configure --prefix=/home/mtv
With the new 0.23 version, I get a permission denied error when doing
the "make install" (everything builds fine)
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ERROR: Can't create '/usr/local/share/perl5'
mkdir /usr/local/share/perl5: Permission denied at
/usr/share/perl5/ExtUtils/Install.pm line 483
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't want to install any components as root if possible and within
limit all installed files to the mtv user's file-space (e.g.
/home/mtv/blah..) which is what the --prefix=/home/mtv does, however I
have no problem installing system components as root which can be
upgraded independently of MythTV (e.g. by YUM).
What configuration (and where) do I need to install as non-root such
that all installed files, bindings, libraries etc.. are within the
/home/mtv file-space.
BTW: installing as non-root on 0.22 and previous is not a problem.
TIA.
Albert.
