I have some directories which are 777. Re-emerging ebuild which own thoses directories do not change directory rights. Example: before: ls -ld /usr/share/doc/xz-utils-5.2.2/ drwxrwxrwx 4 root root 4096 déc. 3 11:33 /usr/share/doc/xz-utils-5.2.2/ after: ls -ld /var/tmp/portage/app-arch/xz-utils-5.2.2/image/usr/share/doc/xz-utils-5.2.2/ drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 déc. 3 11:33 /var/tmp/portage/app-arch/xz-utils-5.2.2/image/usr/share/doc/xz-utils-5.2.2/ ls -ld /usr/share/doc/xz-utils-5.2.2/ drwxrwxrwx 4 root root 4096 déc. 3 11:33 /usr/share/doc/xz-utils-5.2.2/ So content is copied but directory right is not updated Reproducible: Always Actual Results: directory mode is never chanegd Expected Results: dirctory mode is exactly the same as it is in imagedir
What should happen when multiple packages install files in the same directory?
(In reply to Mike Gilbert from comment #1) > What should happen when multiple packages install files in the same > directory? Good question. I suppose that a system like dpkg-statoverride could provide a way to track conflicts and allow the user to choose resolutions. See bug 396153. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 141619 ***
