mtools permissions



How should mtools (3.9.9-1) be setup so that regular users can use it?

I haven't used it in a while and never used to have any problem as a
regular user. I'm a member of the 'floppy' group but mtools is not.

I see no reason to restrict mtools usage to root. Was this a policy
change?
