[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1084820] Re: "Save Copy As" with file opened from Firefox results in restrictive permissions
I am seeing this in Evince 3.10.3 after upgrading to Ubuntu 14.04. A Google search first sent me to Bug #1214874, which was marked as a duplicate of Bug #1096837 -- an AppArmor issue. THAT bug says it was fixed last August in evince version 3.10.3-0ubuntu15, but unfortunately that's a Utopic package, and Trusty has only been updated from 3.10.3-0ubuntu10 to 3.10.3-0ubuntu10.2 . I gather this particular fix is not being backported to Ubuntu 14.04 LTS "Trusty"? Anyone willing to sponsor a SRU to get this fix into Trusty? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evince in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1084820 Title: "Save Copy As" with file opened from Firefox results in restrictive permissions Status in Evince document viewer: Unknown Status in evince package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: A common usage pattern of mine is to download PDF's through Firefox by clicking the link and selecting "Open with", on occasion I'd like to keep the PDF's so use the File->Save a Copy As menu item in Evince to save a copy in my home directory.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1084820] Re: "Save Copy As" with file opened from Firefox results in restrictive permissions
Hmm, interesting. It's expected that cp would result in the same permissions as the tmp file. It's the G_FILE_COPY_TARGET_DEFAULT_PERMS flag which should set the permissions to the defaults for the destination directory. I was wondering if the issue is in GLib but the test program mimics the GLib paths without replicating the bug. I'm kind of stumped as to where to look next... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evince in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1084820 Title: "Save Copy As" with file opened from Firefox results in restrictive permissions Status in Evince document viewer: Unknown Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: A common usage pattern of mine is to download PDF's through Firefox by clicking the link and selecting "Open with", on occasion I'd like to keep the PDF's so use the File->Save a Copy As menu item in Evince to save a copy in my home directory.

yeah, I don't know, we don't patch evince's code so I'm not sure what is at play there... note that doing a "cp" from the command line ends up with the same permissions that the evince copy -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evince in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1084820 Title: "Save Copy As" with file opened from Firefox results in restrictive permissions Status in Evince document viewer: Unknown Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: A common usage pattern of mine is to download PDF's through Firefox by clicking the link and selecting "Open with", on occasion I'd like to keep the PDF's so use the File->Save a Copy As menu item in Evince to save a copy in my home directory.

I just wrote a simple test program (attached) to try and replicate the code path where the file is copied and it results in a file with 664 permissions.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1084820] Re: "Save Copy As" with file opened from Firefox results in restrictive permissions
I don't think that this bug is in Evince itself. I've been taking a look at the code and found that in ev_xfer_uri_simple() libdocument/ev-file- helpers.c:419 the call to g_file_copy() passes G_FILE_COPY_TARGET_DEFAULT_PERMS http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu- branches/ubuntu/quantal/evince/quantal/view/head:/libdocument/ev-file- helpers.c#L419 which according to the glib docs "Leaves target file with default perms, instead of setting the source file perms." -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evince in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1084820 Title: "Save Copy As" with file opened from Firefox results in restrictive permissions Status in Evince document viewer: New Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: A common usage pattern of mine is to download PDF's through Firefox by clicking the link and selecting "Open with", on occasion I'd like to keep the PDF's so use the File->Save a Copy As menu item in Evince to save a copy in my home directory.
