Description Vladimir Benes 2011-03-10 15:10:14 UTC 
Description of problem:
my users directories in /home which was attached to my clean installation in anaconda changed their owner and group to test:cgred 500:500

so after adding user XY I had to change all attributes back to XY which is really annoying ..    

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
nightly build 20100309.n.1

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1.have a /home dir that have user XY
2.install new system
3.add user XY and log into Gnome
  
Actual results:
gnome has no permission to write into XY dir

Expected results:
all permission should be persistent

Additional info:
have seen it again after x86_64 kernel -120 crashed I've rebooted to i386 -119 (this new install)

uff that's caused by different UID/GID

Just FYI, basesystem is just dependency metapackage with no content - so please try to find out better component next time for such cases... :)
