Severity: wishlist

Hi,

The aegis package FTBFS when the build is run as root. Some tests fail,
claiming the "user root too privileged".

Example:
CXX="g++" /bin/sh etc/test.sh -shell /bin/sh -run \
                test/02/t0231a-walt.sh test/02/t0231a-walt.ES
aegis: Warning: The setlocale() function failed.  This results in you
seeing
        the short form of the error messages.  You may need to check the
        settings of your LC_ALL and LANG environment variables.  Use the
        "locale -a" command to obtain a list of valid locales.  If the
list is
        very short, you may have a glibc install problem.
aegis: user root too privileged
NO RESULT when testing the 'aedist -rec' functionality  (new project
132)

Even if nothing in policy forbids aegis from such behaviour, it would be
a good idea to allow building as root, since this makes it slightly
harder to test the aegis package during automated test builds, for
example.

Thank you,
