Hello,

this happened to me before. First, here is a rule to always follow:

NEVER INSTALL A .DEB BY EXTRACTING IT ON YOUR FILESYSTEM ROOT !!!

The fact is that when you do that, the permissions of the extracted file tree is changed. You should even discover that the permisisons of '/' has changed !!! And that's what causes all these problems. Here is a way to fix it: as root, type:

chmod 755 / /usr /usr/bin /usr/bin/theide /usr/share /usr/share/pixmaps /usr/share/pixmaps/theide.png
chmod -R 755 /usr/share/upp

Then reboot your computer and see if your problem is fixed.

regards,
Lionel
