[gentoo-dev] coreutils >=5.0.1 breaks chown user.group on new systems

[gentoo-dev] coreutils >=5.0.1 breaks chown user.group on new systems

[Florian Schneider]

Hello,

After building my new system last week, I've found out, that the chown doesn't 
accept the dot-version (user.group) anymore (except when we downgrade the 
posix version with an environment variable).

bash-2.05b# chown florian.users blah
chown: `florian.users': invalid user

This also means that a lot of ebuilds have to be fixed.

On my system, 16 ebuild are affected, and at least six are from the system 
layout (mailbase man portage baselayout slocate linux-headers)

You can read more here:

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30596



Regards,

Florian

That's odd, I just got done installing a gentoo box a few days ago. chown -R $user.users work many times over when I was bringing my old home directories over... 

you sure that's a actual bug??

At least chown user.group does work according to the NEWS file item from 
coreutils below.

It says:

BTW: I use linux-2.6.0-test5-love3 with glibc-2.3.2-r5 and nptl and the ~x86 
arch keyword.

So I think very few ppl will be affected by this, but in a few months things 
may change.

Can anyone reproduce the bug/problem/issue?

I guess from what i see, if your bleeding edge your affected.. But alas, it will be a problem soon ..

Sorry to budge in.. :)

I personally can confirm this as well.
It does however depend on the POSIX standard the system is complying
too, which requires quite bleeding edge for this to occur.

none the less this should be addressed before it effects too many users,
and this is something I am looking into now.

yes, few people, but why wait ?

uhh just read the source code :p
but if thats not good enough:
root@vapier 0 root # chown root:root f
root@vapier 0 root # chown root.root f
chown: `root.root': invalid user

I don't think its that big of a deal. Can't one of the devs just change 
user.group to user:group in the relatively small amount of affected ebuilds?

It's not a huge deal, but it's not tiny either.  There are (the last time I
counted) at least 400 places that need to be changed and that's just where
"chown" is used.  That doesn't count the fowner calls.  Unless there's a
script involved, I don't think it will be "one of the devs" fixing things
up on this one.

Done 8)

The POSIX version depends on the _POSIX2_VERSION variable in /usr/include/
unistd.h, whose content has benn changed since glibc-2.3.2-r2, whe first of 
the keyword masked glibc versions.

There are 239 affected ebuilds in 84 different directories.

Let's say you've got a file, 'foo' that contains
----CUT----
chown root.root foo
----CUT----

# echo "`cat foo | cut -d "." -f1`:`cat foo | cut -d "." -f2`"

seems to work on the simple case.

I'm sure someone can come up with a regex to match the dotted-chown.

this is easily fixed using a simple sed, however when it comes down to
the actual ebuilds, this isnt a possibility.

Well, for a start it probably isn't always root.root, so how are you 
going to find a regex for all the cases?  You'd have to first look at 
all the chown entries (may even be more than one per line) and then 
decide how to handle it.

it would require every change to be logged, each one to be individually
checked, QA'd, scanned and commited.

so basically, whether this is done manually or not, there will still be
similar amounts of work involved.

if the chown is outside the ebuild, then that would need to be modified
also.

These can be removed since the regex matches too much.

"fowners user.group dst" will also fail in sush a system since fowners
uses chmod internally. I've just fixed sys-apps/at for the sake of

I have to add 'net-irc/eggdrop-1.6.15-r1' to this list. eggdrops configure
script uses 'head -1' which is also obsolete and produces an error ('head -n
1' is the correct syntax now). A patch against eggdrop 1.6.15 is available
at bugs.gentoo.org (http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32694)
