I strongly discourage you from installing as root. If you change
ownership of /usr/local/amber14 to your own user and build without
superuser privileges, and a mistake happens -- either one that we've made
in our configure/build/upgrade scripts or one that you've made -- there is
no way it can damage critical components of your system. For example,
consider the following command:
/bin/rm -fr $AMBERHOME/lib
which is a reasonable thing to do when uninstalling Amber. If something
happens and $AMBERHOME is undefined, this command is instead rendered as:
/bin/rm -fr /lib
And you get to spend the next couple hours (or days) reinstalling your
operating system :). While any (respectable) software developer will do
their best to avoid these types of oopses, it's happened before:

That shouldn't be necessary. This is caused by leftover library files in
$AMBERHOME/lib that need to be deleted and recompiled. Try removing the
$AMBERHOME/lib file, reconfiguring, and recompiling.
