Package: fakeroot Version: 1.11 Severity: wishlist
fakeroot used to work with ACLs, but doesn't seem to anymore. I think the change came at version 1.9 with Thomas B\344chler's patch (see Bug#361306). I'd like to see one of Thomas' long-term solutions implemented (add support for ACLs or xattrs in fakeroot). Here's an example of it working and not working: $ cat /etc/debian_version 4.0 $ fakeroot -v fakeroot version 1.5.10 $ fakeroot # cp -p filewithacls newfile # ls -l -rw-rwxr--+ 1 root root 35090 Mar 23 09:27 filewithacls* -rw-r-xr--+ 1 root root 35090 Mar 23 09:27 newfile* # $ cat /etc/debian_version 5.0 $ fakeroot -v fakeroot version 1.11 $ fakeroot # ls -l -rw-rwxr--+ 1 root root 35210 Mar 23 14:09 filewithacls* # cp -p filewithacls newfile cp: preserving permissions for `newfile': Operation not supported # (NOTE: Clint gave me a workaround (rebuild the fakeroot package without libacl1-dev installed), so we've at least got that) -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-6-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages fakeroot depends on: ii libc6 2.7-18 GNU C Library: Shared libraries fakeroot recommends no packages. fakeroot suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
