           Summary: disallow rebuild_zebra.pl from executing, when run by
                    root user
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: mtj at kohaaloha.com
          Hardware: All
            Status: NEW
           Version: master
         Component: Tools
           Product: Koha

many people run rebuild_zebra.pl as root, this often causes zebra reindexing to
fail, (sometimes silently)

the Koha mailing-list has many people experiencing problems causes by this

patching rebuild_zebra.pl to quit (with a warning) when run from root user,
would stop this

perhaps --force arg could be passed to rebuild_zebra.pl, to allow it to run as
root
