https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=993488#16 contains a
"wontfix + close" but no rationale. Which leaves the original reporter
with a large "?" I guess.
I am guessing that the reason for the "wontfix" is "that's just how Unix
works unfortunately" aka "that's a Unix design bug"? Is my guess correct?
One other question - any idea on a way forward here? I would guess that
behaviour (changing group membership won't change group membership of
running processes) is rooted somewhere quite low in the stack, maybe in
the kernel itself (or in posix :-#)? So if the original reporter would
want to go ahead and look to that problem beeing fixed would he need to go
talk to the kernel mailing list or do you have idea where he could go
to?
