Summary: Strange owner change using fakeroot
Product: Linux XFS
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: High
Component: XFS kernel code
AssignedTo: xfs-master@xxxxxxxxxxx
ReportedBy: duck@xxxxxxxxxxxx
I'm using kernel 2.4.21 with XFS patch ck3 from Con Kolivas
(http://members.optusnet.com.au/ckolivas/kernel/).
I'm packaging some softwares for the Debian distribution.
As it is cleaner and more secure, i am using fakeroot to simulate root
permissions over my build directory.
So i am using a normal user, and the build directory and ALL the files and
subdirectories inside are owned by this user.
At the end of the packaging process, i see an error "permission denied" which
only happen when building on my xfs partition.
Looking for explanation, i found files previously owned by the normal user now
owned by root !!!
It happens either when doing su or when directly login with the normal user
account.
Thx for ur help
