Description wrobell 2008-03-12 14:54:27 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
try to build f-spot without root privileges, you will get

make[4]: Entering directory `/home/.../rpm/BUILD/f-spot-0.4.2/extensions/GalleryExport'
rm -f /usr/lib/f-spot/extensions/GalleryExport.addin.xml
rm: cannot remove `/usr/lib/f-spot/extensions/GalleryExport.addin.xml': Permission denied

(actually, above is the reason to build software without root privileges :))



Steps to reproduce:
./configure --prefix=$HOME/opt
make
make install

Actual results:
build fails

Expected results:


Does this happen every time?
yes

it has been fixed in current svn, and probably also in FSPOT_0_4_2_STABLE branch.
