Thank you for your answer. I'm running ext4 on an LVM partition. No acls, no funky file permissions. I've also tried turning selinux off, but that didn't help. I've gathered some additional info about my filesystem [3]. Other than that, I can't think of anything else that could be wrong/special in any way. If there's more info that you need, just let me know. [3] http://jsynacek.fedorapeople.org/guile/fs.info Thank you, -- Jan Synacek Software Engineer, BaseOS team Brno, Red Hat
