Description Paulo da Silva 2006-02-04 17:47:47 UTC
I detected the following problem:

Ex.
# sandboxshell
[s]foo# addpredict /usr/bin
[s]foo# touch /usr/bin/xxx
touch: cannot touch `/usr/bin/xxx': Permission denied

I thought, because of "addpredict /usr/bin", "touch /usr/bin/xxx"
should not create "/usr/bin/xxx" but I also supposed no
error should be issued! Only a log output.

it did work correctly from the sandbox pov, but `touch` does a lot more work such that it detects an error happened with creating /usr/bin/xxx
