1) The message should be clear enough, namely "You should not be root when running ltib".

2) If you've reinstalled LTIB from ltib.org, then you should do it in a *fresh* directory - I'm guessing you checked out LTIB on top of you current installation.  Move into a *new* directory, then  checkout LTIB and do the build.

3) Don't check out LTIB as root since it will make all the files owned by root, not you, and when you try to run as you (i.e. not as root) LTIB will probably complain with "permission denied"...

Hope this helps.
