Root-owned files, like those services to be symlinked to /etc/systemd/system, need root permissions to appropriately set up the links. Calling symconf with sudo can mess up non-root permissions, however, so we need to take care to preserve local permissions and users during linking, and when root is needed, request sudo access from the executing user.
