Based on this, I'd say nothing's wrong and I can't see why you're having a problem. Perhaps we should back up and you should describe the problems more explicitly. When you try to back up your programs as "anv", what happens? What are the commands you're using and what are the error messages? When you're doing something else as anv that you've found you have to resort to sudo to get it done, what are the real errors as anv? -- Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.
