[gobolinux-users] Again on Rootless compilation

Hi all,
I'm still not able to run last CreateRootlessEnviroment version (2.6.3)
and I can't compile Scripts cvs snapshot, BUT now I found the problem (may
be one of the problems) on compilation side.

The problem is in CheckDependencies.py, at lines 42 - 43

if not os.access(global_dependencies_cache_dir, os.R_OK) :
	os.makedirs(global_dependencies_cache_dir)

global_dependencies_cache_dir is not Rootless safe, its value is

/dependencies_cache/

if makefile doesn't find this directory, it tries to create it. Obviously,
you need to be root to create that directory. I tried to compile Scripts
as root and all works fine.

Regards

Marco
