Thank you. (Again.)
1. Actually before reading this I had deleted both folders
(successfully, despite not being permitted entry into one
of them) and the re-ran the xinit installation with no
bother at all.
I'm guessing the Permissions glitch resulted from some local
recent accidental keypress or sequence.
2. icacls? Haven't got this though I have got getfacl; found icacl in
"Search packages" under libattica-devel and ng-spice-debuginfo?
