I installed hearse on debian squeeze and got it configured using package defaults. When I run hearse from the command line to upload bones files though hearse errors out being unable to open /var/games/nethack. I'd like to have hearse actually work on this system if possible, and probably need to change something to get this problem cleared. Interestingly, /var/games/nethack has an s in one of the fields for permissions (probably sticky bit is set).
