I don't know the use cases you may be finding for _sudo_ to be needed. Could you give a few examples? It may be easier to reason and maybe create these best practices. The only reference to best practices I found is here: https://github.com/leggedrobotics/ros_best_practices/wiki#using-third-party-libraries (linked from http://wiki.ros.org/BestPractices) > * Dont use sudo in wrapper packages. > * Dont require manual system wide installations. --- [Visit Topic](https://discourse.ros.org/t/sudo-usage-in-rosdistro-packages/7188/2) or reply to this email to respond.
