Maybe this would help. More likely, the umask setting was too restrictive during make install. AFAIR, "umask 022" (i.e. no write permission for anyone except user, but read and execute allowed) is needed to enable non-root users to run R. Some systems set it differently, and we're not overriding that since it could be a policy issue. It's not a bug. -- O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard Øster Farimagsgade 5, Entr.B c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics PO Box 2099, 1014 Cph.
