I recently emerged bittorrent 5.0.5, but it keeps on crashing.

I've set wxGTK and wxpython to use unicode.

$ cat /etc/portage/package.use
x11-libs/wxGTK unicode
dev-python/wxpython unicode

I've upgraded twisted-web since I read somewhere that could make a difference.

$ cat /etc/portage/package.keywords
=dev-python/twisted-web-0.7.0 ~x86
=dev-python/twisted-2.5.0 ~x86

And of course I tried re-emerging bittorrent as well. This appears to
be a permissions issue. I can run the program as root (at least it
doesn't crash, I haven't actually tried to download or seed torrents
as root). Any idea which permissions need to change to keep the
program from crashing when I run it as a regular user? Is it safe to
do so? Any suggestions?
