astropy: Permission denied for generated parsetab
I am trying to use astroquery to access GAMA Survey.
The supplied test is
from astroquery.simbad import Simbad
result_table = Simbad.query_object("m1")
result_table.pprint(show_unit=True)
I get an error WARNING: Couldn't create 'astropy.units.format.cds_parsetab'. [Errno 13] Permission denied: ' /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/astropy/units/format/cds_parsetab.py'
Now I could use sudo but suspect there is something I should have done at installation that
should cause parsetab to be created somewhere other than /usr/lib

@KeithSloan - just to echo @bsipocz, definitely don’t feel you have to change your work flow; this is a real bug you uncovered, but it may be in the packaging rather than in astropy. But worth fixing regardless.
