Still a problem?

Ah, found my mistake the chown from the shell was failing silently. a quickie C program turns up a OPERATION NOT PERMITTED return code.
Alec, you need to wrap the os.chown around something. if os.getuid() == 0 should be fine.
Hmm.. Unsure if solar had a bug for this as well or not, so I won't bother searching for a dupe. This is working in 2.0.51.22 though.

That shouldn't have caused a traceback. It is wrapped in a try/except. It would be nice if you could debug why it did. The code at that was attempting to change permissions on the wrong directory however, so I've fixed that.
The try/except only catches ValueError. Fixing the incorrect directory reference fixed the bug.
Fixed on or before 2.0.51.22-r1
Looking through the batch of bugs, I'm not sure that some of these are actually fixed in stable. Others, the requirements have possibly changed after the initial fix was committed. If you think this bug has been closed incorrectly, please reopen or ask that it be reopened.
