🐞 bug report

Affected Rule

During the loading phase.

Is this a regression?

I don't think so.

Description

Per #713 , rules_python cannot be used by root.

CI systems such as CircleCI and BuildBuddy uses root user by default.

Setting up non-root in those systems aren't very straightforward.

Also, it does not look like a responsibility of an ordinary user of rules_python to have to do this.

🔬 Minimal Reproduction

Example build event:

🔥 Exception or Error

Relevant error message:

Error in fail: The current user is root, please run as non-root when using the hermetic Python interpreter. See https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_python/pull/713.
