The problem here is the following: - dynare-matlab tells to matlab-support that its MEX sources are in /usr/src/matlab/dynare-matlab/mex/build/matlab; in this directory, matlab-support correctly sets the permission for the dedicated MATLAB user; - but the build system of dynare-matlab wants to create a directory which is outside this source directory, and this fails for lack of permission; - I had not noticed this problem, since my dedicated MATLAB user is in the "src" group, which has the necessary permissions. This problem is indeed a bug of "dynare-matlab". I am going to reassign it and fix it soon. -- Sébastien Villemot CEPREMAP - Paris School of Economics Homepage: http://www.dynare.org/sebastien Landline phone: +33 1 40 77 49 90 SIP phone: sebastien.ville...@ekiga.net PGP Key: 0xA6C029B9D06B2913D71C105EBE37E801FB6EFF8B (http://pgp.mit.edu/)
