- Hi!
-
- MiNT 1.10 seems to be unable to run programs with setgid-flag!
-
- To test this, I copied `rm' to my home and made a chmod 2755:
- -rwxr-sr-x 1 benni mail 29018 Apr 27 18:34 rm
-
- In my spool dir, there is a lockfile, produced by elm:
- -r-------- 1 benni wheel 31322 Apr 27 17:45 benni.lock
-
- And the permissions of the directory are:
- drwxrwxr-x 2 root mail 320 Apr 27 18:41 /usr/spool/mail
-
- So `rm' should be allowed to remove the file...
- With MiNT 1.09 it works, with 1.10 it doesn't!
- Why???
