I get permission denied errors trying to run the ApproveFalcon.xml script.
It appears that it can't write to /opt/local/bin/lib. lib doesn't exist in
/opt/local/bin actually. However, I can manually create that folder (OSX
asks me for my password), and then I can manually download each of the
files and copy them there (again, after entering my password).

Anyway, I can get beyond this point manually, but I thought I'd mention it,
in case you weren't aware. I didn't see any mention of running with sudo in
the instructions, so I assume that's not what I'm expected to do.

Here's the error for the apache-rat-0.8.jar file:

install-rat.jar:
