Root privileges should *not* be necessary in this case.

Disribution of MonetDB is not as trivial as it seems. For MacPorts
(former DarwinPorts) or Fink it might be easier because of their binary
viewpoint, though. But you always need people with the expertise on the
used packaging method to create and maintain a such package.

As we say in Dutch: "One shouldn't look into a given horse's mouth."
We're very happy for what we get for free from SourceForge, even though
it isn't perfect all the time.
Also, sidenote: we evaluated switching to svn a while ago and came to
the conclusion it is not giving us any benefit, so we'll stay with CVS
for at least a long while.

Hehe... most of us don't have time to wast^H^Hspend on that.

This problem is caused by an old version of the script.
At least I thought I had that fixed. What's the output of
./monetdb-install.sh --version?
When did you download the sources? If you have a good internet
connection you might want to download the latest version of the script
from here:
http://koala.ins.cwi.nl:8000/projects/monetdb//Assets/monetdb-install.sh
and run it like you did. It will download the necessary files, and
should pass. Check that you get version 1.7.
Let us know if you succeed this way.
