Pisound Android App Public Beta!

im getting an error when i try to import a patch from usb: cp: cannot overwrite directory ‘usr/local/puredata-patches…’ with non-directory.

i have tried to resolve this myself and read about root access being denied to user profiles but im not sure how to avoid this as i really don’t want to set myself as a root user. the reason i want to avoid is this i haven’t really got a clue what im up to and i can see re-flashing the SD in my future if i go down that road.
Any help would be appreciated
