Hi Jon,

Thanks for updating calm package.

Usually, I work as a normal user. (i.e., not as root or an administrator)
In this case, mksetupini aborts with a permission error.
It is because Python library files do not have permission to normal users.
Could you modify the file permissions so that they are accessible to non-privileged users?

$ cygcheck -dc | grep calm
calm                                    20250329-1

$ mksetupini
Traceback (most recent call last):
