Subject: [libre-riscv-dev] [Bug 327] New: Don't use sudo with setup.py
Date: Wed, 20 May 2020 00:54:01 +0000
Message-ID: <bug-327-13@https.bugs.libre-soc.org/> (raw)
https://bugs.libre-soc.org/show_bug.cgi?id=327
Bug ID: 327
Summary: Don't use sudo with setup.py
Product: Libre-SOC's first SoC
Version: unspecified
Hardware: Other
OS: Linux
Status: CONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: ---
Component: Source Code
Assignee: lkcl@lkcl.net
Reporter: programmerjake@gmail.com
CC: libre-riscv-dev@lists.libre-riscv.org
NLnet milestone: ---
The HDL Workflow page should be fixed to *NOT* use sudo when calling setup.py,
instead, either use a venv (preferred) or install to the local user account.
This avoids creating files owned by root in the source directory, avoiding the
need to run all code using sudo. This also makes it possible for people stuck
with shared computers where they don't have sudo privileges to be able to
run/develop our code.
