https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=224142 Summary: xorg permissions in rpm package too strict Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: RC 2 Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: X.Org AssignedTo: sndirsch@novell.com ReportedBy: olh@novell.com QAContact: sndirsch@novell.com /usr/bin/Xorg is packaged with permissions -rwx--x--x / 0711 I assume that Xorg can not really work without suid flag, thats why it is listed in /etc/permissions.easy with permissions 4711 Each SuSEconfig run (manually or via rpm postin) will adjust the permissions. The problem is that Xorg ends up with 0711 in the inst-sys. If the inst-sys is on an nfs server, the Xorg binary will not be readably by gdb. Attaching to the Xorg process will fail with permission denied. Probably because the read request comes in as user nobody on the remote side. I suggest to package Xorg (and Xvnc?) with 0755 in rpm. SuSEconfig will correct the permissions as needed. If thats asking for too much, pass it on to snwint. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
