 Hi,

 Regarding the first question, you would need to contact the people
 maintaining the COIN project for the distribution of binaries, see
 https://projects.coin-or.org/CoinBinary.

 As for the second part, if you used the default settings for configure, in
 particular, if you didn't specify the {{{--prefix}}} flag, then the
 binaries are installed in subdirectories of the directory where you ran
 the configure command.  This should not require any special privileges.
 However, if you specified another installation location, e.g., with
 {{{--prefix=/usr/local}}}, then you will need write permission for that
 location (which usually requires administrator privileges).

 In case you didn't specify any {{{--prefix}}} flag for configure, please
 check in the output of make, for which command the error occurs, and see
 if that helps you to find out what is wrong.  If the problem persists,
 please attach the output of "{{{make install}}}" and the {{{config.log}}}
 file to this ticket.

 Andreas
