We're getting closer :-) Your use of 'umask 000' could be part of the problem, but that doesn't explain why rm's final rmdir("d") succeeded. The permissions of "." (the directory containing "d") were set to be rwx------ (aka u=rwx), so that rmdir by non-owner should have failed, regardless of the umask. If you insert this line: ls -ld . after the line that does "chmod u=rwx ." in tests/rm/no-give-up, the output may help. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
