why it's non readable for everybody: drwxr-x--x 11 root adm 124 2008-05-28 05:48 /home/services/ ?
as i have uid=builder $HOME=/home/services/builder (as i consider it service, not real user). however such parent dir permission causes some weird problems like: 1. + /usr/bin/perl Build.PL destdir=/tmp/B.f3367d/perl-Algorithm-C3-0.07-root-builder installdirs=vendor /bin/pwd: cannot open directory `../../../..': Permission denied /bin/pwd: cannot open directory `../../../..': Permission denied Can't find file lib/Algorithm/C3.pm to determine version at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/Module/Build/Base.pm line 950. error: Bad exit status from /tmp/B.f3367d/rpm-tmp.79438 (%build) 2. sudo / su fail with "can't open session" if terminal not attached (ran from cron) 3. + /usr/bin/make -j1 -C /usr/src/linux prepare scripts HOSTCC=alpha-pld-linux-gcc SYSSRC=/usr/src/linux SYSOUT=/home/services/builder/rpm/BUILD/svgalib-1.9.25/kernel/svgalib_helper/o O=/home/services/builder/rpm/BUILD/svgalib-1.9.25/kernel/svgalib_helper/o CC=alpha-pld-linux-gcc /bin/pwd: cannot open directory `../../../../../../..': Permission denied make: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.22.19' Makefile:116: *** output directory "/home/services/builder/rpm/BUILD/svgalib-1.9.25/kernel/svgalib_helper/o" does not exist.
