Description Elan Ruusamäe 2004-06-25 04:16:26 UTC

i have program that scans system for suid programs, and the portage temp directories always match.

drwsrws---  2 250 250 112 2004-06-17 00:58:11.000000000 +0300 /www/gentoo/tmp/webmin-1.140-r1/temp

the setgid bit i could understand, it's that the files group stays 'portage'
but suid?

besides, wouldn't it be reasonable to unpack under 'portage' user, to leave out all those set(gs)id bits?
