I've got a situation where I have a directory in my installer that gets installed inside an application that I don't distribute. When the application tries to open files in the directory I install, it complains of permissions problems. The weird thing is this works on a couple of my machines, but not one of my users' machines.

More info: so after install on a user's i386 machine, the installer has changed the ownership from "me" to him automatically. All works fine.

For some reason, on his G4, this DOES NOT happen. The ownership ends up being "root".

What can this mean?
