*ping* Any news regarding this issue? Sure, it is only a minor problem, but in order to gain the best possible quality in Fedora it would be nice if it could be fixed. ;-) Most likely this problem is in rawhide, F11 and F10. If there is anything I can do, please let me know. Thanks! This message is a reminder that Fedora 10 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 10. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '10'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 10's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 10 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Problem is still at least in F12 and F11: F12: rpm -V gdm .M....G.. /var/log/gdm .M....... /var/run/gdm missing /var/run/gdm/greeter F11: rpm -V gdm .M....G.. /var/log/gdm .M....... /var/run/gdm I'm unsure about rawhide. Still present in F13: $sudo LANG=C rpm -V gdm .M....G.. /var/log/gdm .M....... /var/run/gdm missing /var/run/gdm/greeter This message is a reminder that Fedora 12 is nearing its end of life.

Still in F17 gdm-3.4.1-1.fc17.i686 Note: /var/run is now a symlink to /run, which is mounted as tmpfs by systemd. rpms shouldn't reference files there; neither /var/run/gdm nor /var/run/gdm/greeter should be included in the rpm. These bugs could be fixed easily in 5 minutes. This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora.

Nobody cares, and upstream wasn't even keen to support privsep (one needs high enough privileges to get through /var/run/gdm/ for e.g. xauth cookie). |
Created attachment 333092 [details] patch against gdm.spec to fix the issue Description of problem: "rpm -V gdm" complains about changed mode and group ownership of two directories : .M....G. /var/log/gdm .M...... /var/run/gdm Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gdm-2.24.0-12.fc10.i386 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. rpm -V gdm Additional info: Gdm sets the mode/owner explicitly if they are not correct: /var/log/gdm: in daemon/main.c: S_IRWXU|S_IRWXG|S_ISVTX = 1770 /var/run/gdm: in daemon/gdm-display-access-file.c: S_ISVTX | S_IRWXU | S_IRWXG | S_IROTH | S_IXOTH = 1775 The ownership is set to root/gdm in both cases. The attached patch just fixes this minor problem. I've created and tested it on F10, but it applies also with an "offset of -2 lines" to rawhide's gdm.spec.
