Greetings, I=92d like to retire WITH_INSTALL_AS_USER. Brooks=92 NO_ROOT (which I=92m = also converting to WITHOUT_ROOT) is much better. WITH_INSTALL_AS_USER is = broken. First, it requites you also define NO_FSCHG. Second, any = Makefile that overrides the owner and also has to include src.opts.mk = early to check options fails. It has been broken for some time (even = before my conversion to src.opts.mk, since bsd.own.mk included earlier = before would cause this). This isn=92t hard to fix (just tedious), but = given the better solution we already have in the tree, it seems the best = thing to do is to just kill it since its day has passed. Comments? Warner=
