My script to build Git dies during cleanup. Cleanup removes the downloaded tarball and the unpacked directory: ********** Cleanup ********** rm: cannot remove 'git-2.14.2/perl/blib/lib/.exists': Permission denied rm: cannot remove 'git-2.14.2/perl/blib/lib/Git/SVN/Fetcher.pm': Permission denied rm: cannot remove 'git-2.14.2/perl/blib/lib/Git/SVN/Utils.pm': Permission denied rm: cannot remove 'git-2.14.2/perl/blib/lib/Git/SVN/Ra.pm': Permission denied rm: cannot remove 'git-2.14.2/perl/blib/lib/Git/SVN/GlobSpec.pm': Permission denied ... When I look at the permissions: $ ls -Al git-2.14.2/perl/blib/lib/.exists -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Oct 16 00:43 git-2.14.2/perl/blib/lib/.exists The only place in my script that does anything with privileges is 'make install' because it runs with sudo. Is Git building things in the install recipe? If so, then I don't believe that's supposed to happen. According to the GNU coding standards, Git should not be doing that. Cf; https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Standard-Targets.html.
Yes, running "sudo make install" is a nightmare. sudo clears the path, and the git command is not found by the make invoked with root permissions. This changes the version string that gets compiled into the executable, which finally triggers a complete rebuild under root. Sad...
