probably. I have /usr/share/mythtv/themes
But setting
chmod -R go+rwX /usr/share/mythtv/themes
does not help. and setting
chmod -R go+rwX /usr/share/mythtv/
does not help either.
My setup is 0.24.1_p20111030 on gentoo linux. Backend running as user
mythtv, frontend with my user ID. So I have also tried
chmod -R go+rwX ~/.mythtv
as I do not know if I, or mythtv is the user downloading the theme.
but this again does not change anything. Directories ~/.mythtv/tmp and
~/.mythtv/themes exist.
So maybe some temp directory somewhere? /tmp and /var/tmp are world
writable. So I am a bit stuck now :-)

Martin
