Hi, i am a newbie with this Linux stuff. I am trying to do this install, but after i entered the commands(in the step-by-step i am following )that i needed to, i recieved this message: Do not compile Courier-IMAP as a root. Compile Courier-IMAP as a non-root user then su to root before running make install. You must now remove this entire directory and then extract the source code from the tarball as a non-root user and rerun the configure script.
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.7651 (%prep).
1) How do i remove the entire directory that they are talking about?
2)how do i then extract the source code from the tarball as a non-root user and then rerun the configure script.:(
Please help!!!!!
