| |
Man stopped working after upgrade from test5-pre6 to test6-pre9. x86 UP.
man: can't set effective uid: Operation not permitted
Other setuid programs seem to work well (tested only some, they didn't appear to trigger it because of different usage patterns).
strace on man:
... getuid() = 557 execve("/usr/lib/man-db/man", ["man", "man"], [/* 16 vars */]) = 0 ... getuid() = 557 geteuid() = 6 geteuid() = 6 setuid(557) = 0 ... geteuid() = 557 setuid(6) = 0 ... geteuid() = 6 setuid(557) = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted)
