The Niggli database cannot be updated directly if located in a root directory, such as /Applications on a Mac. The following commands throw errors:

$ simbad-database lattice

$ sudo simbad-database lattice

$ sudo -E simbad-database lattice

Workaround for now is to install it for an user and move it across with sudo access

$ simbad-database lattice -latt_db $HOME/niggli_database.npz
$ sudo mv $HOME/niggli_database.npz $CCP4/share/simbad/static/niggli_database.npz

Command sudo -E simbad-database lattice appears to work on a Mac, and maybe some Linux?!
