Hi,
Ran into a problem with nethack package. Not that I couldn't go around
it: there are several solutions, but I think there should be a simple
straight way (i.e. just installing the package).
I installed with pkg_add nethack-lib and nethack-tty packages (version
3.3.0) as root, then later I wanted to start a game of nethack as
normal user. I got:
Warning: cannot write scoreboard file /usr/pkg/share/nethackdir/record
Hit return to continue:
And then:
NetHack, Copyright 1985-1999
By Stichting Mathematisch Centrum and M. Stephenson.
See license for details.
No write permission to lock perm!
Hit space to continue:
Apparently no rights to use nethackdir. I see only root has the
rights to use nethackdir. What's up? I remember installing 3.3.0
earlier to another NetBSD machine and it had no problems there.
