Description of problem: After upgrade on 2011-10-12, I found that when I log in I am only a member of the group specified in /etc/password and not the other groups specified in /etc/group /etc/gshadow Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 15 How reproducible: True for all gdm and console login's I have tried Steps to Reproduce: 1. Login on console or through gdm 2. Perform a 'id' or 'groups' command Or try changing group ownership of file to another group of which you are a member. Actual results: % grep barry /etc/group wheel:x:10:root,barry util:x:19:barry ftp:x:50:barry barry:x:500:barry % grep barry /etc/passwd barry:x:500:500:Barry Fishman:/home2/barry:/bin/bash % id uid=500(barry) gid=500(barry) groups=500(barry) % groups barry % ls -dl . drwxr-sr-x 2 barry barry 4096 Oct 12 19:04 . % touch foo % chgrp util foo chgrp: changing group of `foo': Operation not permitted Expected results: % groups wheel util ftp barry Additional info: % uname -a Linux ecube.site 3.1.0-0.rc9.git0.0.fc16.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Oct 5 15:30:54 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Same symptoms - Fedora 16 Beta i686 I just updated packaged using "yum -y update" and found that groups are not processed: [root@mixer ~]# grep root /etc/group root:x:0:root bin:x:1:root,bin,daemon daemon:x:2:root,bin,daemon sys:x:3:root,bin,adm adm:x:4:root,adm,daemon disk:x:6:root wheel:x:10:root,mambroz [root@mixer ~]# id root uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root) Linux mixer.localdomain 3.1.0-0.rc9.git0.0.fc16.i686.PAE #1 SMP Wed Oct 5 15:51:55 UTC 2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
Rebooting to old kernel didn't help so issue is most probably about glibc upgraded from glibc-2.14.90-10 to glibc-2.14.90-11 This bug is most probably duplicate of bug #745675 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 745675 ***
