<font size="+1">I've been using Chime<font size="+1">ra 1.5.3 <font
size="+1">under Lin<font size="+1">ux <font size="+1">(Ubuntu
12.04, 64-bit) without problems; that version I had
installed<font size="+1"> as root, and<font size="+1"> is
owned by root. Just now I updated to version 1.8,
which, initially, I also installed as root. But
trying to run it (as non-root) gave me fairly opa<font
size="+1">que error messages<font size="+1"> (copied
below). <font size="+1">On a hunch that it was a
<font size="+1">matter of privilege, I tried
running with `sudo` -- which works fine. <br>
<br>
<font size="+1">Since <font size="+1">it was
not obvious where the problem lay, I
cleaned out the installation, and
installed an<font size="+1">ew as a normal
user (me). Accordingly, the whole
installation directory tree is <font
size="+1">owned by me. But still I
can<font size="+1">not run it (same
errors) as me, but only with `sudo`.
Same user, same <font size="+1">start
directory, appa<font size="+1">rently
the same Python (2.7) as w<font
size="+1">or<font size="+1">ks
with v. 1.5.3.</font></font></font></font><br>
<br>
<font size="+1">I'm totally
flummoxed! Can't imagine wh<font
size="+1">ere the privilege
hang-u<font size="+1">p is. Any
hints where I should look?<br>
