Why do I get the error, “can create package cache dir, /cachedir/packages\”?

An essential optimization in Jython is the caching of Java package information. The caching requires ‘/cachedir/packages/’ in the python.home directory. It is often the case on *nix that users lack sufficient priveledges to create or write to this directory. Because the problem is merely permissions, something similar to “mkdir cachedir; chmod a+rw cachedir” within Jython’s directory should eliminate this error message.
