Hi All...
With the latest version of base files (/etc/profile), a permission error (for /tmp) is displayed every time /etc/profile is run without administrators permissions. The following patch prevents this by checking the permissions before trying to set them. So then run once as administrator after updating. This patch is of course only one possible way to resolve the problem.
Thanks,
...Karl
