reinplace: could not set group for file "${worksrcpath}/Makefile": not owner

[ryandesign@…]

On an Intel Mac with Mac OS X 10.4.11 and Xcode 2.5 with MacPorts running from trunk where MacPorts is not installed as the root user I now get a permission error when trying to patch bzip2. In the post-patch phase, bzip2 uses reinplace.

r45851 caused this.

[jmr@…]

So what attributes do the Makefile and the temp file have?

[raimue@…]

I would rather suspect this was caused by r46146.

[jmr@…]

As that commit message says, the first thing in the list returned by file attributes is the group. So it still would have been trying to set the group before it was fixed to set all the attributes. This is apparently a difference in attribute preservation between cp and file copy.

[raimue@…]

This patch has been committed by jmr@ in r47026 and was updated to support filenames with spaces in r47610.

[jmr@…]

I have no idea whether that patch actually helps with Ryan's problem. It was just a guess that maybe if the user was set at the same time as the other attributes, it might work. If it doesn't help, I'm still waiting on an answer to the question in comment:1 BTW.

[jmr@…]

Not going to hold 1.8 back for this.

[jmr@…]

#20330 has a patch.

[ryandesign@…]

Replying to jmr@…:

Not going to hold 1.8 back for this.

But it is a regression from 1.7.1, which has no problem installing bzip2 when MacPorts is installed as non-root.

[jmr@…]

I'm sure it will go into 1.8 now that there's a patch, but you never provided the requested information, nor reported whether the patch had any effect.
