It isn't. It's not even possible to install the X server from source in an alternate location as a non-root user, since some executables (notably the server itself) have to be SUID to function correctly. Non-root users can not create SUID root binaries. If you want non-root users to be able to install software, you need to at least install "sudo" and configure it. This can allow specific users to execute some (or all) programs as the root user. _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
