The release_2.91 comes with another regression that still puzzles me. In a nutshell, the three commits that deal with setting up the groups during / after installation
2022-08-27 Jon Turney Drop setting root_scope as a side-effect of read_mounts() 2022-08-16 Jon Turney Defer setting group until after All Users/Just For... 2022-08-16 Jon Turney Drop group change while running postinstall scripts break existing installs in certain circumstances that are not yet completely clear. The server installation @work (which uses exactly the same scripting around the installation that I use for my build system @home) changed from using the "Domain Users" group to "Administrators". Additionally the previous access for "Everyone" has been removed and instead SYSTEM is now part of the (Windows) ACL. In effect certain files have become inaccessible to the normal users (unless they are aso Administrators), in particular (this is the part that I still don't understand) newly created symlinks can't be read by a normal user even when the target is fully accessible. Even doing an ls on such a symlink gets a "permission denied". For the time being I've reverted the three commits and re-installed all packages that I had updated since the new setup was rolled out. Except for a handful of cache files for fontconfig (which I manually removed and recreated) that cleared up the whole thing.
