WIP: Specify custom UID for build sandbox in elements
- currently broken on non-bwrap sandboxes, investigating *
This allows you to run all the steps involves in a bst build
command with a custom UID and GID. This applies to all the build steps (configure, build, install, strip). We need this because some elements expect a non-root UID, or have different behaviour when run as root compared to a normal user.
- MySQL will not start as root, making testing difficult
- tar's default behaviour changes
I couldn't find any documentation of element configuration options at the moment. The element format doc says "refer to the element specific documentation", but I couldn't find that.
