Consider the following line in config.yaml (master branch)

gems_install_path: "/root/.autoproj/gems"

Should it not point to the user's home directory?
With root/, gem installations fail; one would be required to call ./install_esrocos with sudo.
I manually changed it to /home/taste/.autoproj/gems (in the TASTE VM) and worked.
Note that gem does not like the ~ in paths...

it does / did. The problem stems from differing default user names on the dockerized version, the vm and the native installation other partners use.

this can be solved by using the reconfigure tool of autoproj - the config.yml is mainly meant for quick testing without the need to change the configuration.

Perhaps it should be removed altogether?
