I dowloaded several epics packages and trying to installing them.

Usualy one install software by issuing the command
../configure --prefix=<location>
which defaults to /usr/local if --prefix is not specified.
Then making (compiling) in user account and
installing it (after becoming root).

Is epics not done this way?
I'm trying to install in /usr/local/epics but have to become root
to compile and install.  I dont want to overuse root privileges.

Another option is to set up another user account named "epics"
and install there.  But I dont want to log in/out so frequently.

How do epics users manage this?
