What's the secret to get nethack to work? I have it sgid games, but it
says it can't open /var/lib/games/nethack/perm ...
brahe:/var/lib/games/nethack $ ll `which nethack`
-rwxr-sr-x 1 root games 1137 Oct 29 1997
/usr/games/nethack*
brahe:/var/lib/games/nethack $ ll
total 3
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root games 53 Dec 4 16:24 logfile

Cannot lock /var/lib/games/nethack/perm for unknown reason (1).
Do I have to set this SUID games ... and doesn't that make it impossible
to save games if there's more than one player?
