[pcp:master] New Comment on Issue #268 MMV not immediately usable after clean install ( https://github.com/performancecopilot/pcp/issues/268 )
By natoscott ( https://github.com/natoscott ) :

@ryandoyle this isn't a recent change - it's a result of commit 0cfa8763b8649 ... we are between a rock and a hard place in terms of setting up this directory, and we ended up leaving it for the user to sort out (I'd really prefer not to; but I can't see any better solution). See the INSTALLATION section in pmdammv(1) and the git log from the commit, but the original issue was this: (from git log 0cfa8763b86)

Folks have complained that we are creating world - writable - sticky bits in somewhat unorthadox locations , and question the need for PCP to be doing that , arguing it opens up unnecessarily potential exposure to security issues via attacks from hostile local users .
