Is there a way to install K5 (1.6.2 in particular) for client use without 
being superuser?  I thought I could do this as long as my userid owns all 
the directories into which I'm building and installing (I'm not installing 
a KDC). However, now I find that 'make install' wants to run 'ginstall' 
with the '-o root' option. Since I'm a non-root user, I'm not going to be 
able to chown anything, much less to root.

On this system (Solaris 10), I'm interested only in the K5 libraries (for 
our own apps, written to the MIT K5 API) and the client utilities (e.g., 
kinit, kadmin, etc.), not in the supplied apps such as those in 
../appl/bsd. Is there, perchance, a configure or make option to specify 
that I don't want to install the binaries that are supposed to run as 
root, in particular, that I don't want/need to do chowns or setuids?

Thanks.

Mike
