Should we really be skipping the test if this fail? Isn’t it an infrastructure bug if we can’t make the file unreadable? I think the test should fail, but say why it failed: “could not make $HOME/jdb.ini unreadable” and perhaps include the current permissions on the file and directory for debugging purposes.
