How to prohibit from changing an owner of modifiable files? I sometimes need to run a Qt Creator from root. After that, some config files of Qt Creator suddenly have a root as an owner. Therefore when running Qt Creator as user, I am getting nag warnings about impossibility of writing to those files. Is it possible to prohibit from changing owner of those files?

Problem was solved by using `gdbserver` run by root.

sudo gdbserver :1234

After that, I have connected to 127.0.0.1:1234 from QtCreator's menu and got debugging working. QtCreator was run from ordinary user. Thanks to all for the answering!
