It is not a more general problem - the issue is incorrect
permissions in the livna.org package. I filed the bugzilla
some time ago, and it should be fixed in the rpm, but
no updated srpm was released (despite the request for one).
Hopefully there will be an updated srpm with the upcoming 7147
package.
