I'll have to check the logic to make sure Ah, I see. I thought that it was complaining that the default "install" was not the UCB install.

I'm not sure that installing as non-root is all that localized a requirement, but I'm easily able to work around it so it doesn't bother me that much. -- "Then, I came to my senses, and slunk away, hoping no one overheard my thinking." --Steve McAndrewSmith in the Monastery
