Re: gEDA-user: installation



Do not install as root.  If you install as root, and you need to
install system-wide dependencies, the installer becomes confused when
it tries to fire up an expect session as root.

Now I'm confused. In all these years of working on Unix, I've always thought packages need to be installed as root. How else will you keep the binaries in a place like /opt or /usr/local where all users of your system can access them?
