Bug#623383: eog breaks filesystem ACL

[Cyrille Bollu]

Package: eog
Version: 2.30.2-1
Severity: normal


Hi,

I'm saving my pictures in a directory with default acl.

When I edit such a picture with eog its acl gets lost.

I confirmed it is not a problem with the way I implemented acl on that directory because "touch"ing a file on that directory creates the file with the correct acl.

here's the directory's acl

#getfacl .
# file: .
# owner: cyb
# group: users
user::rwx
group::rwx
group:users:rwx
mask::rwx
other::---
default:user::rwx
default:group::rwx
default:group:users:rwx
default:mask::rwx
default:other::---

here's what i get when i create a file in that directory with "touch"

#touch zzz
#getfacl zzz
# file: zzz
# owner: root
# group: users
user::rw-
group::rwx			#effective:rw-
group:users:rwx			#effective:rw-
mask::rw-
other::---

here's what i get when i modify a file in that directory with eog:

#getfacl IMG_4269.JPG
# file: IMG_4269.JPG
# owner: cyb
# group: users
user::rw-
group::rwx			#effective:rw-
group:users:rwx			#effective:rw-
mask::rw-
other::---

(now rotating the image with eog)

#getfacl IMG_4269.JPG
# file: IMG_4269.JPG
# owner: cyb
# group: cyb
user::rw-
group::rwx			#effective:---
group:users:rwx			#effective:---
mask::---
other::---

The group has lost its rw access

Do you understand what happens here?

BR,

Cyrille
