As it says in the title. A clean install of seadas_7.5.3_linux64_installer.sh. When I try to install ocssw from the GUI:

Some distros mount /tmp with the noexec option (for security). I wonder if the SeaDAS GUI respects TMPDIR. Workaround is the install_ocssw.py script.

Edit: a copy of install_ocssw.py was left behind in /tmp by another user after that user's failed update, hence permission denied when I tried to update myself. Would be better if the GUI would give install_ocssw.py a randomized name when it downloads it to /tmp.
