Affects: yelp (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
When I start yelp from gnome-terminal, I get this warning:

I/O warning : failed to load external entity "Cannot write to log file:
/var/log/scrollkeeper.log : Permission denied"


Looking at /var/log, indeed only root can write to that log file:

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 715876 2006-03-25 11:10 /var/log/scrollkeeper.log
