Is root required? #201

Closed sansna closed 3 years ago

sansna commented 3 years ago

For security reason, it is bad to request root permission. Does the project have plans to remove root priviledge afterward?

No, root is not required -- neither to build a staticx executable nor to run a generated file. What makes you think that root is required?
