Hello,

I have just installed the patches and looks like it is working now.

{{{
$ ls -ld /var/spool/prelude/prelude-lml
drwxrwx---  4 root  wheel  512 Oct 23 10:27 /var/spool/prelude/prelude-lml
$ ls -l /var/spool/prelude/prelude-lml
total 4
drwxrwx---  2 root  wheel  512 Oct 23 10:27 _tmp_prelude-manager.sock
drwxrwx---  2 root  wheel  512 Oct 23 10:27 global
$
}}}

Kind regards,
