</span>You dont for the ./configure part.<br>
<br>
Make might need it to overwrite system files during the install part if<br>
you choose to replace the system files in-place. But that is just<br>
another reason to use a custom /proxy folder for the installation, which<br>
wont need root.<br>

</span>Hmm. Yes it should have -x permissions. Thanks for that I will have to<br>
double-check the 3.5.8 release.<br>
