It should have solve the problem. It is possible to redefine those file
locally by placing a copy in /var/lib/conf.permissions and edit it there.
Another solution is to go into control/control file & systems/permission
and ownership. Find the relevant entries (/var/spool/uucp for example) and
change the spec so it uses root instead of uucp.
Newer linuxconf are less picky about this. If a group or user is missing
for a fixperm spec, it is silently ignored. You can upgrade from
