Permissions when installing

[drkmc]

I installed Treeline as root (only option I used was to specify where my docs live). I had to go in an manually change the permissions on all the directories (there was no global or group permissions set). In addition, I did need to add a symlink as the default /usr/local/bin isn't on my PATH. It might be good to check these after install and update/symlink as needed (easier than changing every users PATH statement, although that would work just fine).

Distro: openSUSE Leap 15.5
Kernel: 5.14.21-150500.55.19-default
Desktop: KDE Plasma v: 5.27.7
Python: Python 3.6.15 (hmmmm....might need to update that)

I could add more checks to the install script, but the problems you're seeing are due to the configuration of your system.
The permissions problem is likely due to the umask value for root. Do you have a reason for it to be set so restrictively?

By default, /usr/local/bin should be on your path. It's where third-party apps are intended be installed. If you want a different install prefix can be selected using the -p option on the TreeLine installer.
