Issue 713: Safari: Gears InputManager failed to load Gears
http://code.google.com/p/gears/issues/detail?id=713

Comment #10 by gears.team.playmobil:
Have you changed the permissions on your /Library folder at all?

Could you try creating a new user account on your system and seeing if you can
install Gears there?

Why I'm suspicious:
the listing for ls -al /Library/InputManagers/ shows
drwxrwxr-t@ 62 root     admin  2108 Sep  2 13:02 ..

Indicating that the sticky bit and finder info is attached to the /Library folder, this may be nothing but the /Library directory should have the following permission:
drwxrwxr-t+  57 root      admin  etc...

InputManagers on Leopard are *very* sensitive to the permissions of
/Library/InputManagers , I'm *guessing* that the permissions of your /Library folder
may be preventing the InputManager from loading.
