Hey!
I am about to download and start using MEGAlib. I use Ubuntu as Linux OS, on Windows 11.
In ubuntu bash, when trying to clone using $ git clone https://github.com/zoglauer/megalib.git, i get the following output:
fatal: could not create work tree dir 'megalib': Permission denied
Than i try to use $ sudo git clone https://github.com/zoglauer/megalib.git which work's. But than, when i try to run $ bash setup.sh --branch=main i get the following output:
Setting up MEGAlib on your system
==================================================
(1) Verifying chosen configuration options:
* Using this path to MEGAlib: /megalib/.
* Updating MEGAlib to the latest version
* Using MEGAlib branch main
* Clearing the environment paths PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, CPATH
* Using this path to install external software (ROOT, Geant4):
* Download latest compatible version of ROOT
* Download latest compatible version of Geant4
* Not using HEASoft
* Using operating system architecture Linux
* Using normal code optimization
* Using no debugging code
* Using this maximum number of threads: 12
* Don't check for updates
* Don't apply MEGAlib internal ROOT and Geant4 patches
* Don't clean up intermediate build files
(2) Preparing the MEGAlib source code:
Making a backup of your old source code - just in case...
tar (child): SourceCodeBackupDuringMEGAlibSetup.260624.133640.tgz: Cannot open: Permission denied
tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now
tar: SourceCodeBackupDuringMEGAlibSetup.260624.133640.tgz: Cannot write: Broken pipe
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
ERROR: Something went wrong during backing up your source code.
If i try to use $ sudo bash setup.sh --branch=main, i get the following output:
Error: For security reasons, this script is not intended to be run as superuser/root.
It is intended for a user installation of MEGAlib.
Do you or someone have any answer for this?
Edit:
Issue -> closed: Worked after the computer and bash was restarted a multiple of times. :)
