Created attachment 717680 [details]
patch against existing patched source

Description of problem:
I remember in some bug I asked notting about langinstall allowing packages to be installed without root user permission. I see that this is already fixed in upstream but then no tarball has been released with this fix. Thus, F17 to F20 all are affected by this bug.

Can attached patch be used to fix this bug? If any upstream developer is here, can we have stable tarball release instead.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
yum-langpacks-0.3.0-4.fc18

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. yum langinstall hi_IN
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
langinstall installs packages without root user permission

Expected results:
Should check for root user permission before installing packages.
