Summary

0005123: Permissions need to be set-uid owner or be set as from the package

Description

CSWamanda 0000003.3.3 the permissions for amanda binaries in /opt/csw/sbin/ have permissions that do not work as it is. They have to be set-uid root or whatever appropriate.

For example,
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root bin 64132 Apr 24 2013 /opt/csw/sbin/amcheck

Above perms, result in "permission denied' error while running amcheck.

chmod u+s /opt/csw/sbin/amcheck will resolve the issue.

Additional Information

I didn't have this issue with 0000003.1.1. Encountered this immediately after upgrading to 3.3.3 (pkgutil -u amanda)

Copying here the comment from malinglist-http://lists.opencsw.org/pipermail/users/2013-November/009706.html [^]

"
I guess this was missed when converting from the legacy package to our new buildsystem:
http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/gar/browser/csw/mgar/pkg/amanda/trunk/Makefile [^]

(See --disable-installperms) This needs to be converted to permission settings in
the package."

Notes
(0010773) maciej (manager) 2014-03-24 00:48	There is no point in waiting for this bug to be fixed. If you want it fixed, you (yes, you the reader) need to fix it yourself. If you're not already a package maintainer at OpenCSW, you can look at the 35 minute long tutorial[1] to get started - then you can offer your patch to package maintainers. You can find OpenCSW people on the users mailing list[2] and on the #opencsw channel on IRC on Freenode[3].
