script/bootstrap requires sudo #129

Closed gl-yziquel closed 8 months ago

gl-yziquel commented 8 months ago

It just so happens that, on my machine, which is ubuntu with ruby installed from ubuntu (if I remember well), execution of the script/bootstrap script requires using sudo. Which I heavily dislike.

Could it be possible to avoid running sudo with that script ?

No. The purpose of this script is to install packages, which inherently requires administrator access. If you would not like to run the script, you can install the packages yourself.

set -x BUNDLE_PATH (ruby -e 'puts Gem.user_dir')

That solved it for the fish shell.

It still asks for sudo, but for apt-get.
