Description dlipin 2009-04-27 12:49:03 UTC 
NetBeans registration directory (~/.netbeans-registration) is created under root user and thus IDE registration status 
can`t be stored.

Workaround is either change permissions to "anyone can do anything" or just change the ownership to the current user.
1) sudo chmod -r 777 ~/.netbeans-registration
2) sudo chown -R `ls -nlda ~ | awk ' { print $3 ":" $4 } ' 2>/dev/null` ~/.netbeans-registration
