affects 640334 + grub-common kthxbye Hi,
I just ran into this issue with update-grub, too: [...] /usr/sbin/grub-mkconfig: 291: /usr/sbin/grub-mkconfig: /etc/grub.d/README: Permission denied There runs a "test -x /etc/grub.d/README" just before that problem happens and /usr/sbin/grub-mkconfig is a /bin/sh script. This is related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/537123 (update-grub fails if /etc/grub.d/README executable bit set) which seems to either not fixed or showed up again as a regression (see comment #4). That issue is also present in Debian Sid. It just showed up on kfreebsd because of "test -x" failing to report executable bits properly. Colin: Yeah, that's how I stumbled upon the fact that LP: 537123 is not fixed or has a regression. :-) Regards, Axel -- ,''`. | Axel Beckert <a...@debian.org>, http://people.debian.org/~abe/ : :' : | Debian Developer, ftp.ch.debian.org Admin `. `' | 1024D: F067 EA27 26B9 C3FC 1486 202E C09E 1D89 9593 0EDE `- | 4096R: 2517 B724 C5F6 CA99 5329 6E61 2FF9 CD59 6126 16B5 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
