Re: [Ltib] Unable to run ltib for very first time.

[Stuart Hughes]

Hi Ayewin,

I've not seen this before (and don't have this host type).  However I do 
know others that run fine with this set-up (FC11 on dual core).  There's 
some kind of permissions problem (from the error message).

Here's a couple of ideas:

1/ Check to see if you have the file ~/.rpmmacros if so remove it 
(unless you're actively using it).

2/ Look for any other messages from SELinux when you tried to install. 
If you see them you may have to change your SELinux setting to permissive.

BTW: if you want to post to this list, you must subscribe, follow the 
links below.

Regards, Stuart
