permissions altered while saving over sshfs mount

This has been reported for "regular" files, too - independent from sshfs (bug 152638).
Can you confirm this?

Negative. This only applies to sshfs mounted files for me.

Tested it using the following commands:

$touch afile
$chmod uga-rwx afile
$chmod ug+rw afile
$gedit afile&
$watch ls -l

when alter the file and save, the permissions are not changed.

Ok. These are two different bugs then.

I've tried reproducing your bug, but could not:
$ mkdir mymount
$ sshfs -o uid=1000,gid=1000 example.com: mymount
$ ls -l | grep myfile
-rw-rw-r-- 1 daniel daniel 51 2006-06-13 14:38 myfile
$ gedit myfile
$ ls -l | grep myfile
-rw-rw-r-- 1 daniel daniel 52 2007-10-16 02:10 myfile
-rw-rw-r-- 1 daniel daniel 51 2006-06-13 14:38 myfile~

So, in this case "ga-rw" has not been removed.

Your guess in the direction of "umask" may be quite right. E.g., if gedit confuses local and remote umask maybe.
I have umask=0022 locally and umask=0002 when logged in with ssh on the server.

I've first tried it with a new file, but have read then that it is only buggy for you with an already existing file and then tried that.

hmm.. I wasn't able to "mv myfile~ myfile" on the sshfs: Operation not permitted
But I could "rm myfile" and then "mv myfile~ myfile". Strange!?

$ sshfs --version
SSHFS version 1.7
FUSE library version: 2.7.0
fusermount version: 2.7.0
using FUSE kernel interface version 7.8

Daniel,

I have the exact version information that you do.

Also, if you own a directory, you may delete files out of it, but not modify
files that you do not own in it, I believe.

I haven't been able to update any packages, as I am working in a
professional environment and I have been burned by updates in the past
("Sure, boss, I'll get right on it after I find a CD to burn my wireless
module sources to").

But as soon as this weekend comes, I'll update everything and retry this
issue.

This problem is still not fixed. Is there any information that I can
provide? Everything I edit over a ssh mount turns to this: -rw-------....

The other reports you are referring to are not sshfs related and already reported in bug 152638.
The point with bug 152638 however is, that the file is not owned by the user who edits it. Only then, the permissions and owner/groups get changed.

I've uploaded a version of gedit with the patch for bug 152638 to my PPA.
You can download it at http://ppa.launchpad.net/blueyed/ubuntu/pool/main/g/gedit/ and manually install it.
It may fix this bug, too.
Please test it and report back.

Fantastic! It worked!

Thank you very much!

Great! I'm marking it as duplicate then.
