Are you sure, or perhaps 0.19.13 ?

It's trying to chown /home/tinjaw/svn/sandbox/hooks/etc even though it
doesn't say so. I cannot reproduce this error using 0.19.17 if I try to
configure in a similar way (sending the installation in $HOME).

Does the following work:

$ chown 999 32899 /5home/tinjaw/svn/sandbox/hooks/etc

?? I wonder if perhaps you don't have rights to change the group
permission. In which case you could modify Glue_Installer.pm to only
chown a user, not a group, and let us know if this works.
