<p>The build instructions advise to put an apps dir in your home
path e.g.</p>
<p>~/apps</p>
<p>If you choose to put apps in the root path i.e. /apps you must
make sure you have given yourself permissions to that path.<br>

<div>Hi,<br>
<br>
</div>
I've been following the building guide on Ubuntu 17.10 and
came across the following issue while running "make
install" without root, then I get the error message:<br>
</div>
</div>
<br>
CMake Error at cmake_install.cmake:36 (file):<br>
file INSTALL cannot set permissions on
"/apps//apps/man/man1/qgis.1"<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>If I run it with sudo it installs fine<br>
</div>
<div>should it work without root?<br>
</div>
<div><br>
I suppose you intended it to work without root, because I
needed to the following commands without $HOME or ${HOME}
after running "sudo make install" in order to run QGIS:<br>

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_<wbr>PATH:${HOME}/apps/lib/<br>

<div>Suppose I run make install, should I still be able to run
QGIS from the repos without any issues?<br>
