Ok, asside from the 'building iso sets' as '(todo)', which will no doubt be done soon, I would like to pose this build question (I'll subscribe to buildsys soon, I promise). What part of the iso 'spin' process requires root, and why? I've skimmed enough mock docs to see that mock even has a root setuid hook. >From a 'philosophical' point of view, it seems like root really ought not be needed by a program which inputs the development repo over the net, and outputs iso images. I am very serious about working to bring about a non-root 'spin'(/strain in my vernacular) process. qemu is what I'm working with now to accomplish this, and the performance is definitely adequate for the hobbyist distro builder. But of course qemu ought not be necessary to accomplish this, unless I'm missing something. I'd appreciate any commentary or pointers to relevent historical threads. -dmc/jdog ____________________________________________________________________________________ The fish are biting.
