The following is a bit annoying when you want to install something as a normal user, but just "ignore" any set permissions/owners/groups.
/usr/bin/install -c -o root -m 4755 mail.local /home/update/ams/gnu-tools/gnu/stow/hurd//libexec/mail.local /usr/bin/install: cannot change ownership of `/home/update/ams/gnu-tools/gnu/stow/hurd//libexec/mail.local': Operation not permitted Would it be possible to add some kind of a --ignore=TYPE (with short option -i), where TYPE is either `group', `mode', `owner' option that would ignore EPERM or such and just continue if it was specifed? Then one could make the install line look like "install -i owner -o root ..." or so, and it would just continue if you were a normal user and not break my compile jobs... Just a random thought... _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
