I build goffice from git under debian squeeze, I also set umask 027 in my .profile
having done 'sudo make install', open a new gnumeric and try to insert a chart, it pop up a window Fail to open file '/usr/share/goffice/0.8.2/ui/gog-guru.ui' Permission denied. on checking these files -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3860 2010-03-19 11:38 go-3d-rotation-sel.ui -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6640 2010-03-19 11:38 go-font-sel.ui -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 31134 2010-03-19 11:38 go-format-sel.ui -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7007 2010-03-19 11:38 gog-3d-box-prefs.ui -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 31489 2010-03-19 11:38 gog-axis-prefs.ui -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2089 2010-03-19 11:38 gog-equation-prefs.ui -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 17034 2010-03-19 11:38 gog-error-bar-prefs.ui -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3817 2010-03-19 11:38 gog-graph-prefs.ui -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7336 2010-03-19 11:38 gog-guru-type-selector.ui -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 21319 2010-03-19 11:38 gog-guru.ui -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 27531 2010-03-19 11:38 gog-object-prefs.ui -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 12814 2010-03-19 11:38 gog-plot-prefs.ui -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2797 2010-03-19 11:38 gog-reg-curve-prefs.ui -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1551 2010-03-19 11:38 gog-reg-eqn-prefs.ui -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7034 2010-03-19 11:38 gog-series-prefs.ui -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5103 2010-03-19 11:38 go-image-save-dialog-extra.ui -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 11477 2010-03-19 11:38 go-image-sel.ui -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5707 2010-03-19 11:38 go-rotation-sel.ui -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 45197 2010-03-19 11:38 go-style-prefs.ui this seems ok, but on checking the directory permission, I found that directory /usr/share/goffice and its sub-directory deny all read/write/browse to others. drwxr-x--- 3 root root 4096 2010-03-19 12:30 goffice remove the goffice and redo as 'export umask 022 ; sudo make install' solved the problem. why 'sudo make install' not override user umask? I guess gnumeric directory have the same issue. -- regards, ==================================================== GPG key 1024D/4434BAB3 2008-08-24 gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys 4434BAB3 _______________________________________________ gnumeric-list mailing list gnumeric-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnumeric-list
