Description of problem: The update of fakeroot has added extended attribute support, but AFAICS it is purely simulated in memory, not even initialized with the system-wide state. In particular, *getxattr(…, "security.selinux", …) fails with ENODATA This breaks testing of code which attempts to preserve SELinux context when copying files. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): fakeroot-1.20.2-1.fc22.x86_64 Steps to Reproduce: 1. getfattr -m - -d . 2. fakeroot getfattr -m - -d . Actual results: > # file: . > security.selinux="unconfined_u:object_r:user_home_t:s0" and (empty output) Expected results: > # file: . > security.selinux="unconfined_u:object_r:user_home_t:s0" and > # file: . > security.selinux="unconfined_u:object_r:user_home_t:s0"

Bumping to rawhide, no updates from upstream yet. Looking at packaging pseudo[1] in the meantime. [1] https://www.yoctoproject.org/tools-resources/projects/pseudo
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 24 development cycle. Changing version to '24'. More information and reason for this action is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Program_Management/HouseKeeping/Fedora24#Rawhide_Rebase
This is beyond my skill to fix and upstream hasn't even responded to the bug report. Patch welcome.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 27 development cycle. Changing version to '27'.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 27 is nearing its end of life. On 2018-Nov-30 Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 27. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '27'. 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 27 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.
Fedora 27 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2018-11-30. Fedora 27 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
This package has changed maintainer in Fedora. Reassigning to the new maintainer of this component.
