Using root privileges to build a package



Hi,


I'm working with a package (octomap) that is composed by two libraries
depending on another one built in the same package.

The question is that to build that two libraries correctly firstly the library
that they depend must be build and _installed_. It's the _only_ way that I have
found without patched all upstream.

I have read the [1], the policy, I have tried several combinations of the field
Rules-Requires-Root: binary-targets, etc without success.

Please, someone can tell me how can I put in a d/rules a "make install" to /usr
that works?

Best regards,


Leopold
