Dear Sir/Madam:
I do these steps as root user on fedora 14 as follows:
#tar -xvfj ptxdist-2011.10.1.tar.bz2
#cd ptxdist-2011.10.1
#./configure
and get the messages as follows:
..............
checking for patch... /usr/bin/patch
checking whether /usr/bin/patch will work... yes
configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating Makefile
ptxdist version 2011.10.1 configured.
Using '/usr/local' for installation prefix.
#make
#make install
from the first cmd to the last one , I donot have any error message,but I
get an error when I want to setup ptxdist.
#ptxdist setup
ptxdist:error:refusing to run PTXdist as root
So how can I correctly install ptxdist on fedora 14,please give me some
help.Thx.
I am looking forward for your reply.
yours sincerely,
Vanlos Wang

It is not allowed to run ptxdist as root, as some unintended things may
happen then. So if you did all the installation as root it is just fine,
but please *start* ptxdist as a normal (nonroot) user.
Best regards,
Robert
