Original description

What steps will reproduce the problem?

Download 64 bit, Linux tarball, and unpack it

Run arduino-0022 ./arduino without configure

What is the observed output?

Error message: check_group_uucp(): error testing lock file creation Error details:Permission deniedcheck_lock_status: No permission to create lock file.
please see: How can I use Lock Files with rxtx? in INSTALL

but in running: $ find . -name INSTALL
it returns a nil result ...

The documentation referenced during execution should be in the tarball, for SPOT, particularly with a commonly named file

What do you see instead?

no INSTALL file exists in the release

What version of the Arduino software are you using? On what operating
system? Which Arduino board are you using?

-022, on a current CentOS 5 64 bit install

[herrold@localhost tools]$ cat /etc/redhat-release ; uname -a
CentOS release 5.6 (Final)
Linux localhost 2.6.18-238.9.1.el5 #1 SMP Tue Apr 12 18:10:13 EDT 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[herrold@localhost tools]$

Arduino board is a Uno, but this is not in scope or play here

Please provide any additional information below.

The fix should be as simple as adding a ./documentation/ directory and adding INSTALL, and other relevant files which are referenced in error messages
