I double checked user janneke and they are in the mes group. vcs:/web/mes# id janneke uid=69791(janneke) gid=1003(svusers) groups=1003(svusers),1062(emacs),2418(lilypond),77664(guix),78026(mes) Therefore they should have group permission to write to all of the files there. However I saw that the files did not have group write permission like other projects. Therefore I added it. vcs:/web/mes# find mes -type f -exec chmod g+w {} + > on vcs, I checked > the permissions with getfacl, and it turned out that > the 'mes' group had no write access for /webcvs/mes/mes/. > it seems to work now after I manually run > setfacl g::rwx /webcvs/mes/mes > and setfacl g::rw /webcvs/mes/CVSROOT/history, > but other new packages like chord-sequencer also must > be affected. > > Does anybody know where to look for the real fix? I use the coreutils project as a reference. I know it has a working set of permissions. There definitely seems to be something wrong with the way new projects are created. This isn't the first new project to have problems. Bob
