Hi,

It should be possible to use a make install without executing "chown" 
and "chgrp".
This is implemented in  ~/hobbitd/Makefile but not in ~/client/Makefile

ifndef PKGBUILD
     chown $(BBUSER) ....
     chgrp `$(IDTOOL) ...
endif

I build standard packages on Solaris (pkgadd) and Tru64 (setld). It 
would be great if this can be made with a non-privileged account.

Best regards,

Tony

I ran into that as well while building rpm's for Mandriva.  I also
separated the client part into a second RPM.  If anyone wants the
specfile I used, let me know.

Will fix this.
