The error occurs for www/lynx-ssl (and I guess the other lynx ports as well):
sed -e '/^HELPFILE:http/s!^!#!' -e '/^#HELPFILE:file/s!#!!' -e
'/^HELPFILE:file/s!/PATH_TO/lynx_help!/home/users/whiter/apps/share/lynx_help!'
-e
'/^[A-Z_]*:/s!/PATH_TO/lynx_doc!/home/users/whiter/apps/share/doc/lynx!'
-e '/^HELPFILE:file/s!$!!' -e '/^HELPFILE:file/s!$!!'
/home/users/whiter/apps/etc/lynx.tmp
>/home/users/whiter/apps/etc/lynx.cfg.default
cannot create /home/users/whiter/apps/etc/lynx.cfg.default: Permission denied
*** Error code 2
It's a problem that doesn't occur when installing as root, since root
doesn't care about write permissions.
