Folks:
This morning, I upgraded from (IIRC) 0.5.3 to 0.6.1, by running {
apt-get update; apt-get upgrade; fink selfupdate }. In the process, I
was prompted to add a few users/groups to my system (MacOS X 10.2.8). I
just answered "yes," thinking that it knew what it was doing.
I just tried to fire up Nethack after a hard day's work and got the
message "No write permission to lock perm!". I executed the following
script, and discovered that ther user/group on all of the files was
2011/unknown!
#!/bin/sh
for i in `dpkg -c /sw/var/cache/apt/archives/nethack_3.4.1-1_darwin-powerpc.deb | cut
-c 53-`; do
if [ \! -d $i ]; then
ls -l $i
fi
done
I replaced "ls -l $i" with "chown games:bin $i", tried to run it again,
and got the same error.
{ find / -user 2011 -group unknown -print } shows that there are *many*
files that are affected by this, but I'm not sure how to go about fixing
it. Any suggestions?
