Lack of userland installations is a show-stopper for testing and development
work with the different koha versions.  It must not trample another installation
or other software and user permissions are the most obvious way to prevent that.
 Do you expect every developer, tester or evaluator to have one system per koha
install?

Writing the installer to require root and not offering a userland (even manual)
install method is bad.  Nothing in the install process inherently requires it
all to be run as root.  I will reopen this bug RSN unless a reason or solution
is offered.  Feel free to follow up to the koha-devel post I made.
