If you're working on language data, `sudo` is pretty much only for running package managers like `apt` (or `port` or `dnf`) and for running package setup scripts like https://apertium.projectjj.com/apt/install-nightly.sh

In general, don't use `sudo` (and don't run as the root user) when building/compiling things.

The only exception is `sudo make install`, but when working on language data you should never have to do this.
