Package: base-files Version: 5lenny7 Severity: wishlist On multi-user machines there can be the need to have /var/run/utmp not readable for ordinary users.
Unfortunately every update of base-files resets the permissions and ownership of the file, not respecting any entries in the dpkg-statoverride database. Please consider respecting dpkg-statoverride for /var/run/utmp (Probably even for all files in postinst.in) Alternativly the permissions and ownership could be set only, if the file was newly created, as this is the case for some files mentioned in postinst.in. This bug effects also the base-files package version 5.9. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.6 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-686-bigmem (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, lc_ctype=de...@euro (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages base-files depends on: ii base-passwd 3.5.20 Debian base system master password ii gawk [awk] 1:3.1.5.dfsg-4.1 GNU awk, a pattern scanning and pr ii mawk [awk] 1.3.3-11.1 a pattern scanning and text proces base-files recommends no packages. base-files suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
