UNPRIVILEGED has been around several years now. I use it in production
on some Linux systems where I don't have root. If I had to deal with
those systems any other way, I'd go mad(der).

We've had at least a couple pkgsrcCon talks and discussions about
unprivileged pkgsrc. Perhaps we could do with another, especially if
there's anything new to report.
