    Dear Dave:

    I have installed everything from scratch several times. The problem
    seems to be related to file permissions in Eclipse 3.4.2 after WOLips
    is installed. The installer installs Eclipse in /Developer/Apps/
    eclipse and sets its ownership to root:admin. When I change the
    ownership of the folder and all files inside to myself, then all is
    OK. This problem occurs with WOLips installed via the binary installer
    and via the Software Update Manager.

    Here is a summary:

    1. Eclipse 3.4.1 + WOLips
    OK

    2. Eclipse 3.4.2 + WOLips binary install
    Problem

    3. Eclipse 3.4.2 + WOLips via Software Update Manager
    a) Problem if files owned by root:admin
    b) OK if files owned by me (the user running Eclipse, non-admin account)

    I am still investigating. Any ideas would be appreciated.

    Thanks
    Rudy
