Build warnings, and install problems.

[Ben Elliston]

Hi Mike,

   During the build I get tonnes of:

   In file included from ../../../db/PORT/../include/db.h:45,
                    from ../../../db/PORT/../recno/rec_utils.c:44:
   ../../../db/PORT/include/compat.h:108: warning: `BYTE_ORDER'
   redefined
   /usr/include/endian.h:47: warning: this is the location of the

I submitted a patch recently that eliminates this annoying warning so that
you can see real warnings instead.  It'll be in the next release.

   Looks to me like it isn't installing in my BUILDROOT.  Looks like it
   is trying to install on my system instead.  If this is true, can
   someone suggest how to have it install elsewhere?

How did you configure the tree?

   Does SN require any part of the build process to be "root"?  Is it
   possible for an ordinary user to build it, then install it in
   ~/source-navigator fully functionally?  If so how?

No, you can be an ordinary user to build and install S-N:

	/path/to/src/configure --prefix=$HOME/source-navigator

.. is all you need.
