[SOLVED] GVM does not install products on linux mint

I have a recent version of GVM - in fact, my entire machine is very recent as I wiped off Windows and installed Linux Mint 17 at the end of May or beginning of June. GVM does not install software, doesn't even create the directory (in the example, no 2.4.2 directory - as you can see, the mv fails for this reason). I have had to install the products manually. The "current" points to a non-existent instance if I fail to do so. This has been true of Grails, Groovy and Gradle.

Here is an example:

worldwidewilly@hal9000 ~ $ gvm install grails 2.4.2

Downloading: grails 2.4.2

Installing: grails 2.4.2
mv: target ‘/home/worldwidewilly/.gvm/grails/2.4.2’ is not a directory
Done installing!

Do you want grails 2.4.2 to be set as default? (Y/n): y

Setting grails 2.4.2 as default.

What need I do to not fail on the install? Are there dependencies in Linux that I need install?
