Sure.
I hit the same problem trying to install Arp/wARP on Mandriva.
The specific error message you quote comes because the install
script fails to create the temp directory before trying to unpack
into it. You can fix that by creating the directory by hand first.
Unfortunately, that doesn't help very much. The next thing that
happens is that the ccp4i installer complains that the tarball
is not recognized as a ccp4i install tarball. I gave up at that
point.
