Description of Problem: Because this package contains unowned directories, they will be created with the current umask. When having restrictive administrator settings (umask 077) ordinary user will not have access to them and can not use the package. Another problem occurs when removing packages. Then orphaned directories are remaining. | $ rpm -qf /usr/share/aclocal/C++_Support /usr/share/aclocal/C++_Support/ac_cxx_bool.m4 | file /usr/share/aclocal/C++_Support is not owned by any package | ac-archive-0.5.36-1 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ac-archive-0.5.36-1 How Reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 0. make a minimal installation 1. umask 077 2. make sure that ac-archive is uninstalled completely (rm -rf /usr/share/aclocal/C++_Support) 3. rpm -U ac-archive-0.5.36-1.noarch.rpm 4. ls -l /usr/share/aclocal/C++_Support 5. try to use the programs/scripts/libraries/data of the package as non-root user 6. rpm -e ac-archive-0.5.36-1 Actual Results: * at 4: | drwx------ 2 root root 4096 Sep 13 19:53 /usr/share/aclocal/C++_Support * files can not be found/read at 5 and * /usr/share/aclocal/C++_Support still exists after 6.
Thanks for the report. Should get fixed the next time I build ac-archive.
Should be fixed in ac-archive-0.5.39-2. Please confirm.
Fix verified. Thanks
