[Bug 661678] Re: bzr whoami: unable to copy ownership from '$HOME/.bazaar' to '$HOME/.bazaar/bazaar.conf'
Hi Martin, One of our new hires (manager for our PM team) recently installed Ubuntu 10.10. For some, as of yet, undiscovered reason his install has him a member of the 'users' group instead of a per-user group (almost as if USERGROUPS was set to no in /etc/adduser.conf). Whats even more odd is that his per-user group does exist - he just isn't a member of it. His home directory and a number of files + folders underneath of it are owned by '$USER:$USER' but most are owned by '$USER:users'. New files he creates are owned by '$USER:users' thus the reason the chown failed. I've spoken with Colin Watson about this and he can't think of any reason to explain this. However, there is clearly some codepath that results in this situation since the original reporter of this bug appears to be in the exact same situation. For bzr, is the chown necessary? I'm guessing its to prevent the files being owned by, for example, root if the first invocation of bzr is done via sudo or something? Maybe just silencing the error is appropriate to close out this bug (since clearly the user group stuff isn't a bzr problem) - ie. (assuming my guess was correct), accept the chown as a best effort attempt to provide smoother experience? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/661678 Title: bzr whoami: unable to copy ownership from '$HOME/.bazaar' to '$HOME/.bazaar/bazaar.conf' -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Cody, Is this causing trouble for OEM services? Can you clarify whether the problem in your case is that the files are root-owned, or if instead it is that they belong to a group of which the user is not a member? ** Changed in: bzr Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: bzr (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/661678 Title: bzr whoami: unable to copy ownership from '$HOME/.bazaar' to '$HOME/.bazaar/bazaar.conf' -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

It looks like this happens when changing the group of the new file, but the user isn't actually a member of the group we're setting. ** Changed in: bzr Status: Invalid => Triaged ** Changed in: bzr Status: Triaged => Confirmed ** Changed in: bzr (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/661678 Title: bzr whoami: unable to copy ownership from '$HOME/.bazaar' to '$HOME/.bazaar/bazaar.conf' -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I guess the file was owned by root and now it's not. We couldn't really have done anything about this and I think giving a warning was fairly reasonable. Therefore I'm closing this. Feel free to reopen if it recurs repeatedly. ** Changed in: bzr Status: New => Invalid ** Changed in: bzr (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- bzr whoami: unable to copy ownership from '$HOME/.bazaar' to '$HOME/.bazaar/bazaar.conf' https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/661678 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi, thanks for the report. I wonder what the permission is on the directory? "ls -dl /home/pang/.bazaar" will tell you. My guess is that you first ran bzr as root therefore it's still owned by root. ** Changed in: bzr (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- bzr whoami: unable to copy ownership from '$HOME/.bazaar' to '$HOME/.bazaar/bazaar.conf' https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/661678 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
