I repeat asking: please show facts!

Can you please tell how you have run the "<packet>.SlackBuild" script?
Have you used some "su" or "sudo" wrapping?

not going to get it.

Looks like you should stop asking me for a fix, then.

Yeah, Grant, you know this is Dario Niedermann's group. If your posts
