Well, if you are debugging the program, you would probably be better
off running "rpmbuild -bp <package>" and then make your changes in
the build directory. Then run make manually. You can do this all as
a normal user. Depending on what you are building, you may be able
to run it as a normal user from the build directory. If not, you are
probably going to override the make file so it installs relative to
your home directory. Once you have it debugged, you can transfere
the changes to the virgin source with a patch, or pass them upstream...
