Bug Description
Last night I installed the update qemu-kvm-
Afterwards, I discovered that I could no longer use FUSE, and from comparing time stamps, discovered that the permissions on my /dev/fuse had been changed to:
crw------T 1 root root 10, 229 Mar 8 07:48 /dev/fuse
at precisely the time that this update was running its postinst script. (/dev/fuse should have group fuse, not root, and group rw access.) The culprit appears to be udevadm:
udevadm trigger --subsystem-
This may be related to bug #1103022.
The full list of devices which had their permissions changed then is:
crw------- 1 root root 10, 58 Mar 8 07:48 alarm
crw------- 1 root root 10, 59 Mar 8 07:48 ashmem
crw------- 1 root root 10, 60 Mar 8 07:48 binder
crw------T 1 root root 10, 234 Mar 8 07:48 btrfs-control
crw------- 1 root root 10, 57 Mar 8 07:48 cpu_dma_latency
crw------- 1 root root 10, 61 Mar 8 07:48 ecryptfs
crw------T 1 root root 10, 229 Mar 8 07:48 fuse
crw------- 1 root root 10, 228 Mar 8 07:48 hpet
crw-rw----+ 1 root kvm 10, 232 Mar 8 07:48 kvm
crw------- 1 root root 10, 237 Mar 8 07:48 loop-control
crw------- 1 root root 10, 227 Mar 8 07:48 mcelog
crw------- 1 root root 10, 54 Mar 8 07:48 mei
crw------- 1 root root 10, 56 Mar 8 07:48 network_latency
crw------- 1 root root 10, 55 Mar 8 07:48 network_throughput
crw------- 1 root root 10, 1 Mar 8 07:48 psaux
crw-rw-r--+ 1 root root 10, 62 Mar 8 07:48 rfkill
crw------- 1 root root 10, 231 Mar 8 07:48 snapshot
crw-r----- 1 root root 10, 223 Mar 8 07:48 uinput
crw------- 1 root root 10, 53 Mar 8 07:48 vboxdrv
crw------- 1 root root 10, 52 Mar 8 07:48 vboxnetctl
crw------- 1 root root 10, 63 Mar 8 07:48 vga_arbiter
I can't see any other device that has incorrect permissions now, but I can't tell for all of the above what the correct permissions are.
