There were no errors in the installation but when I try to install or

The error message seems to indicate that the runtime fails to open the
metakit database containing the virtual filesystem of the starpack.
Does that happen only when 'teacup' is run with 'sudo', or in
general?  What are the permissions on "teacup"?

Running it without sudo makes it hang.
