+I'm trying to install from scratch on a CentOS 4.6 system. I installed perl 5.8.8 from source and then added all the required modules via CPAN. When I build ikiwiki from the tarball, I get this message:
+
+ rendering todo/calendar_--_archive_browsing_via_a_calendar_frontend.mdwn
+ *** glibc detected *** double free or corruption (!prev): 0x0922e478 ***
+ make: *** [extra_build] Aborted
+
+I'm kind of at a loss how to track this down or work around it. Any suggestions? --Monty

+# Installation of selected docs (html)
+
+The latest release has around 560 files (over 2MB) in html.
+
+Any suggestions or ideas on limiting what html is installed?
+
+For example, I don't see value in every ikiwiki install out there to also install personal "users" ikiwiki pages.
+
+For now I copy ikiwiki.setup. And then use pax with -L switch to copy the targets of the symlinks of the basewiki.
+
+I was thinking of making a list of desired documents from the html directory to install.

+

+# Installation as non-root user
+
+I'd like to install ikiwiki as a non-root user. I can plow through getting all the
+perl dependencies installed because that's well documented in the perl world,
+but I don't know how to tell ikiwiki to install somewhere other than / --BrianWilson
+
+> Checkout the tips section for [[tips/DreamHost]]. It should do the trick. --MattReynolds
