Subject: wrong gid and permissions on /usr/bin/curlftpfs

Date: Tue, 21 Jun 2011 09:44:33 +0200

Package: curlftpfs
Version: 0.9.2-3
Severity: normal

Hello,

I believe the settings for gid and permissions of /usr/bin/curlftpfs should be
the same as those for fusermount to make curlftpfs work as expected with the
Debian mechanism for the fuse group:

$ ls -l /usr/bin/fusermount
-rwsr-xr-- 1 root fuse 24292 18. Sep 2010  /usr/bin/fusermount

There seems to be no need to  set curlftpfs to be setuid to make it work
as  a plain  user. You  only need  to have  the rights  set  properly on
/dev/fuse:

crw-rw---- 1 root fuse 10, 229  1 juil. 23:41 /dev/fuse

Does not exist anymore.

Maybe that  would have  been useful with  Squeeze but we  cannot correct
this kind of bugs in Squeeze. The fix is not necessary for Wheezy.
