Package: amanda-server Version: 1:2.6.1p1-2 Severity: normal Tags: patch Hi
when i first tried to use an APPLICATION with new amanda-server i got the following error: ERROR: : Application 'amgtar': ** (process:502): CRITICAL **: amgtar must be run setuid root ERROR: : Application 'amgtar': exited with status 1 ERROR: : Application 'amgtar': can't run support command A dpkg-statoverride solved the problem: dpkg-statoverride --force --update --add root root 4755 /usr/lib/amanda/application/amgtar I believe that all beneath /usr/lib/amanda/application/ should be run with setuid root like it is i.e. for ls -la /usr/lib/amanda/runtar -rwsr-xr-- 1 root backup 7564 2009-11-24 19:38 /usr/lib/amanda/runtar So my recommendation is to set the setuid root on /usr/lib/amanda/application/* per package default.
