Default nethack error: no write permission to lock perm

Hi,

I installed the nethackTTY package from linuxpackges on my Slackware 10.2
system. When I run it (as root or normal user) the game won't start but
prints the error: "no write permission to lock perm" on the screen. I already
tried to change permissions to the program etc. What's the problem and how
can I fix it? (Nethack's project page knows a bug with this error message for
MACOS only. Moreover, the QT-Version of the game works fine on my system.)

Chris
