I’m having what might be a very Mac-oriented problem. When installing ROOT 6 from binary dmg files the resulting root directory permissions are somehow corrupted. When looking at the permissions in a Finder window it says “Fetching…” rather than my username and group (see attached screen dump). Also, when listing the permissions I get some numbers instead of my username
edvinsidebo@psidebo:/Applications$ ls -lad VLC.app/
drwxr-xr-x@ 3 edvinsidebo admin 102B Feb 2 2014 VLC.app//
edvinsidebo@psidebo:/Applications$ ls -lad root_v6.06.02/
drwxr-xr-x 19 14806 1081 646B Mar 17 13:03 root_v6.06.02//
I tried changing the permissions with chmod but without success. I cannot run the tutorials e.g. at tutorials/tmva because make fails since I’m lacking permissions (I can’t write at all:
root [0] TFile f(“hej.root”,“RECREATE”)
SysError in TFile::TFile: file hej.root can not be opened (Permission denied)
)
