Program has problems in shared environments #2

I've been getting this error the past few times I've been running the program over VPS

/root is insecure (40775). It may not be group or world writable. Exiting.

I believe the answer to this issue is here

I don't know enough about Ruby though to know where the config files are to implement the solution.

Probably you are getting this warning because you are trying to use sanguinews from /root directory with wrong permissions. I tried to recreate this problem in regular shared environments by putting the program into some user's home directory and everything went fine. I was able to execute and work correctly with it with another account.
