 We also advise against running as root user. NPM deliberately uses limited privileges when executing certain commands such as those included in the Roots post-install process, and when this happens to the root user, any file system objects that are not expressly writable by the root user will fail to write during the execution of the command. These might include directories such as `/var/www` or `/home/someotheruser`. If you're running as root and have problems, don't say we didn't warn you.
