            Bug ID: 360614
           Summary: After a successful "make" from git sources, the "make
                    install" creates a bogus "share" directory
           Product: kig
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: david.narv...@computer.org
          Reporter: paol...@dmf.unicatt.it

I usually perform "make" as normal user, and then "make install" is performed
as "root".
The latter apparently works fine, but creates a bogus "share" directory inside
the kig
source tree owned by "root" (and a few other directories inside "share").  The
normal user
is then unable to remove these directories.

Also note that in some settings (e.g. NFS-mounted home directory) the root user
*cannot* create files in the user directory, because on the nfs server root is
mapped as nfsnobody.
This could lead to a fatal error when running "make install".

Reproducible: Always
