selfupdate failed, help me diagnose the problem

[Fredrik]

Ryan, Diego, John thank you.

I'm an idiot, using the -d flag revealed "permission denied" for rsync which reminded me to use sudo! 
Anyway, even though it's a dumb mistake perhaps the default error message could be a bit clearer, just a thought.

Thanks
