Hi Jacob,

This means that you uncompressed the file using root permissions instead
of using default user ones, because you shouldn't need sudo to run
Pharo. The alternative should be to change the permissions on the folder
you made have Pharo so you don't need sudo each time. Something like

sudo chown -R myuser:myuser PharoFolder/

should work.

Cheers, and welcome to the community.
