+### Please describe the problem.
+
+A readonly repository that I can add fine on the commandline (and sync content from) cannot be added through the webapp.
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+
+Say I have a readonly (owned by root) repository in `~/test/a` and I create a `~/test/b` (owned by my user). In the webapp, when to add `/home/anarcat/test/a` as a "local repository" (`Add another local repository`) to the `~/test/b` repo, it fails when i enter that path, with "Cannot write a repository there." I obviously can't sync content from there then.
+
+This works on the commandline, although with warnings.
+
+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+
+Version: 5.20140927 
+Build flags: Assistant Webapp Webapp-secure Pairing Testsuite S3 WebDAV Inotify DBus DesktopNotify XMPP DNS Feeds Quvi TDFA CryptoHash
+
+Debian Jessie.
+
+### Please provide any additional information below.
+
+Here's the transcript of the commandline equivalent:
