[gobolinux-users] rootless - real_install

[Dan]

If the problems you're having with Compile are similar to the ones I  
was having (getting prompted for a sudo password all the time), you  
can fix them by replacing Programs/Scripts/Current/Functions/ 
GoboLinux with the latest CVS version.

http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewcvs/*checkout*/tools/Scripts/ 
Functions/GoboLinux?rev=1.15&root=goboscripts

Forgot to tell you when that was fixed. Sorry.
