Follow-up Comment #26, bug #59821 (project octave):
I'd have to find it but I believe there was old language either in the doc or
docstring that mentioned dependence on 'write access' that is no longer
there, and wasn't accurate. In any case, the criteria is user level, and that
criteria is now applied uniformly across the different operating systems. I
think as long as it's clear how octave makes the determination, it's not
needed to call out write access (other than maybe that if -global is forced,
octave will try to update them whether or not you actually have access to do
so.)
The package dependency order issue is reported in bug #47405
I think that wording looks okay, updated doc patch attached that I think
captures most things pointed out in the recent comments.
(file #51306)
