Demeteorizer throwing Error: EACCES, permission denied error

[pjbrow]

I'm trying a deploy an app I just updated to Meteor 0.9.0. During the demeteorizing stage, I get the following error.

I am running this on OSX Mavericks.

Saw this also yesterday, probably related to #64. If you run as sudo it should get through, but dependencies will be empty

Turns out this is unrelated to #64, but it is a result of 0.9.0. In the bundle step, Meteor makes boot.js read-only, so demeteorizer fails when it tries to set the min node version in that file. I did submit a fix that handles the error better, but you'll still need to have root if you want that step to work. That said, I was able to successfully demeteorize and run a fairly complex Meteor app with the commit in the referenced pull request, so I'm not sure if setting min node version is even necessary anymore...
