Hi, Gentoo.I'm clearing out dross from my home directory, as me (not as root) and I've just deleted this file: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Apr 11 2011 grep , simply by typing $ rm grep. I was prompted with: rm: remove write-protected regular empty file ■grep■? , to which I responded 'y'. The file is now gone. So, as a non root user, I've managed to delete a file belonging to root, to which I have no write access. This is crazy! I'm not happy about this. What's going on?
The owner of a directory is able to delete any files in it. It would really be weird otherwise.
