Package: deluged
Version: 1.3.5-1
Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainer,
With the default setup all downloaded files are owned by
debian-deluged:debian-deluged and others have no access to the files.
There are a number of ways in which you can 'solve' this.
1. Become root and "chown (-R) user:group <file(s)>", but you have to do
this for every downloaded file.
2. Change the init script to modify USER to debian-deluged:downloaders
(downloaders is a group I created myself)
3. Add your own user(s) to the debian-deluged group
4. Change the default group of debian-deluged to your preferred group (in
which you/your users are placed)
5. Change MASK setting to allow the world to read(/write) the files.
Option 2-4 can optionally be combined with changing MASK setting.
See also bug #691649.
The solution I'm using now is the following:
- Created (non-system) group downloaders and added myself and debian-deluged
to it
- Changed default group of debian-deluged to downloaders
- Changed MASK setting to give downloaders group full permissions
It would be great if this or a scenario like this, can be configured through
debconf or sth like that.
Cheers,
Diederik
