If we install Widelands from the PPA, it will end up in /usr/local/games. The executable then tries to write the JSON files to /usr/local/games/data/map_object_info. Permission is denied for creating the directory. It's a security measure - a bit like Windows getting prissy when you try to mess with C:\Program Files and you have to confirm everything.
