#65810: Cannot make cmake-bootstrap without root privileges
-------------------------+-----------------------------

-------------------------+-----------------------------
Hello,
I maintain a port tree in my home directory on my work computer where I do
not have root privileges. This has been working for years. However,
recently I upgraded from Big Sur to Monterey, and therefore have to
rebuild all my packages. This barfs at building cmake-bootstrap with the
error
{{{
---> Installing cmake-bootstrap @3.9.6_0
Error: Failed to install cmake-bootstrap: MacPorts requires root
privileges for this action
}}}
I have been using macports as non-root for a long time now, so where is
this restriction coming from now? Am I toast, i.e., I should give up on
macports unless I have admin access?
