Package: pyaimt
Version: 0.8.0.1-2
Severity: normal
On install pyaimt has incorrect permissions which mean it always fails to run up
It tries to create /var/lib/pyaimt/<aim server name> but it's running as the
pyaimt user at
that point and /var/lib/pyaimt is owned by root.

A working fix is to change the ownership of /var/lib/pyaimt.
