IDP installation changes source files (blame XSB)

Issue #803 new
Bart Bogaerts created an issue

When trying to install idp with read-only rights on the source, I get

[  1%] Performing configure step for 'xsb'
/export/home1/NoCsBack/dtai/jodv/workspace/idp/lib/XSB/build/configure: line 2148: config.log: Permission denied
/export/home1/NoCsBack/dtai/jodv/workspace/idp/lib/XSB/build/configure: line 2158: config.log: Permission denied

    Are you talking about compilation? I believe you need write rights for compiling (and installing) XSB.

    Het compileren van IDP zou van mijn source moeten afblijven... (ik wou onlangs een read-only source compileren -> de versie zoals Jo ze staan had) en dat ging dus niet...

    XSB compiles in-source. We could provide a bypass by first copying XSB's source to another location and compiling there, but this seems very messy. How much of a problem is this?
