Description Ville Skyttä 2014-02-02 09:24:50 UTC
Apparently as part of the fix for #962988, /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf was changed to a setgid executable. I don't think that makes sense, shouldn't it be %attr(0640,root,mail) instead of 0750?

Comment 1 Andrei ILIE 2014-10-13 19:05:46 UTC
Confirming for sSMTP 2.64, perm 2750 instead of 0640:


# ll /etc/ssmtp/
total 8
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root  200 Oct 11 06:53 revaliases
-rwxr-s---. 1 root mail 1483 Oct 11 06:51 ssmtp.conf

# ssmtp -V
sSMTP 2.64 (Not sendmail at all)

# cat /etc/redhat-release
Fedora release 20 (Heisenbug)

Comment 2 manuel wolfshant 2014-10-13 19:36:50 UTC
IIRC I just copied the settings from https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=661954. I've changed the settings in git but did not build a new version yet.

Thank you for the notification

Comment 3 Fedora End Of Life 2015-01-09 22:23:59 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora 
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is 
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no 
longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will
be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'.

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.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 19 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, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

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.

Why not build it, ship the updates and be done with this? Looks like only the EL7 package has the fix at the moment.

Comment 5 Ville Skyttä 2015-01-12 21:12:34 UTC
(Or at least build for rawhide.)
