Sorry - I sowed confusion by pasting in the wrong bit of the ls command.
We do not want write-permission, it is the ability to read the files
that is lacking, due to the directory permissions:
ls -ld /usr/local/share/denemo/actions/menus/MainMenu/
drwxr-s--- 9 root staff 4096 2008-09-27
22:15 /usr/local/share/denemo/actions/menus/MainMenu/
Compare this with templates for example
ls -ld /usr/local/share/denemo/templates/jazz
drwxr-sr-x 2 root staff 4096 2008-09-27
22:15 /usr/local/share/denemo/templates/jazz
I don't know how these acquire the permissions they have got... Sorry
for creating confusion - as you say, only root can write to the
installation directory. We just want to read in the system provided
extra menu items.
