Hi,

We're contemplating a change to the installation procedure for the LDM and 
would like to know if and how this will affect you. Currently, if the option 
"--disable-root-actions" isn't specified, the configure(1)-script will test to 
see if the user has root privileges. We're thinking of abandoning this in favor 
of a more simplified installation process in which the user would first build 
and install the LDM as themself and then the superuser (i.e., root) would 
execute the command "make root-actions". This last step could be done by the 
same user via su(1) or sudo(1) or later by a systems administrator.

This change would allow the use of GitHub's actions for continuous integration 
testing (why it would is a long story) and is something which is greatly 
desired.

Please let us know if this would negatively affect your LDM installation 
practice in an unacceptable way by posting to this mailing-list.

Regards,
Steve Emmerson
