If I try to run the single player game I get:
Fatal signal: Segmentation Fault (SDL Parachute Deployed)

The tutorial works, and if I manually unpack the archive in my home dir and run the game, the single player game works without problems.

However, if I install the game using the ebuild it doesn't work.

if you do `FEATURES=nostrip emerge triptych-demo` does it work ?

No, it still doesn't work. Same error.

mmm maybe it's a permissions issue ?

if you do `chmod g+w /opt/triptych-demo` does it work ?
if not, does it work as root ?

Yep, it's a permissions issue. Running as root works. `chmod g+w /opt/triptych-demo` works as well.

thanks for helping us track it down

the ebuild will now create the three status files and give games group write access to them
