Bug#857921: Unwritable cache for new jars

Package: jython
Version: 2.5.3-15
Severity: normal

when I use jython to import from a jar as a user, I get the following
messages:

>>> import sys
>>> sys.path.append('/usr/share/java/adql.jar')
>>> import adql
*sys-package-mgr*: processing new jar, '/usr/share/java/adql-1.3.jar'
*sys-package-mgr*: can't write cache file for '/usr/share/java/adql-1.3.jar'
*sys-package-mgr*: can't write index file

since the cache dir is not writeable for the ordinary user.
Maybe this should have been set to the user's home dir if started by a user?

Best regards

Ole
