Good news: this seems fixed with this patch. Some more comments inline. Timothy Sample writes:

Okay... on that note, "raco pkg install" now completely works IME without permission errors, I should mention. I'm still seeing a couple of permission errors on "raco setup", but they don't look like they matter unlike the ones that were appearing earlier. And you're right, I tried on Debian and got some errors too. For the record, the ones I saw looked like this: delete-file: cannot delete file path: /gnu/store/33rx7rh6q22h3r11x8prz37nl7ygfl22-racket-6.12/bin/raco system error: Read-only file system; errno=30 context...: /gnu/store/33rx7rh6q22h3r11x8prz37nl7ygfl22-racket-6.12/share/racket/collects/launcher/launcher.rkt:358:0: make-unix-launcher /gnu/store/33rx7rh6q22h3r11x8prz37nl7ygfl22-racket-6.12/share/racket/collects/setup/setup-core.rkt:1451:13: for-loop /gnu/store/33rx7rh6q22h3r11x8prz37nl7ygfl22-racket-6.12/share/racket/collects/setup/setup-core.rkt:1428:8: make-launcher /gnu/store/33rx7rh6q22h3r11x8prz37nl7ygfl22-racket-6.12/share/racket/collects/setup/setup-core.rkt:1556:8: for-loop /gnu/store/33rx7rh6q22h3r11x8prz37nl7ygfl22-racket-6.12/share/racket/collects/setup/setup-core.rkt:178:50 /gnu/store/33rx7rh6q22h3r11x8prz37nl7ygfl22-racket-6.12/share/racket/collects/setup/setup-core.rkt:1425:4: for-loop /gnu/store/33rx7rh6q22h3r11x8prz37nl7ygfl22-racket-6.12/share/racket/collects/setup/setup-core.rkt:71:0: setup-core /gnu/store/33rx7rh6q22h3r11x8prz37nl7ygfl22-racket-6.12/share/racket/collects/setup/main.rkt: [running body] /gnu/store/33rx7rh6q22h3r11x8prz37nl7ygfl22-racket-6.12/share/racket/collects/raco/main.rkt: [running body] But again, I don't think they matter. >> ISTM that this is a separate bug.
