Licensing Error on installing XC8 V 1.12 for linux on Slitaz 4 32 bit (386 version)I used this SO (Slitaz 4.0) because may hardware is old and small (low memory).I install MPLabX IDE on Slitaz 4 with root pribileges in X-terminal and process OK. MPLabX IDE open interface and funcionalI try install XC8 V1.12 for linux in same systen and conditions (root pribileges in X-terminal) and this message after the splash screen shows off (the button is 'OK:). No information in terminal windows. On click in Ok button ans process finish.Please help me.This screen is similar (I can not capture window dialog):this message after the splash screen shows off. No information in terminal windows. The Linux installer xc16-v1.11-linux-installer.run for the 16 bit compiler builds a directory in /tmp then tries to execute things in /tmp.

If your system is slightly hardened, it will not allow this behavior. Here is what my system looked like when it was broken:brian@desktop $ mount grep ' /tmp ' tmpfs on /tmp type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,noexec,relatime,seclabel)This is what it looks like when it works:brian@desktop $ mount grep ' /tmp ' tmpfs on /tmp type tmpfs (rw,relatime,seclabel)This is how I fixed it (as root):root@desktop # mount -o remount,rw,defaults,suid,exec /tmpNotice the installer insists you become root no matter where you want to install things and notice the programming is sort of bad so please do not run the installer on any machine you care about (like I did).Brian Micek.

I have to say I agree with you all the way and I am in progress of wiping out my systems that I used the binary installer on. I suppose people that do this stuff for awhile know better and its going to cost me a few days of complete down time. I do know some PPC and ARM compilers are strictly GPL and install with a tarball extraction so I'm wondering if I can just tar up the contents of /opt/microchip and (legally) install it were I need it?

I'm in progress asking the documentation people if this is acceptable. Another solution is to run the binary closed-source installer with fakeroot ( in order to defeat the root requirement, but I have not tried that yet.
