Subject: Re: LFS 6.1.1: coreutils tests as user dummy: touch: setting times of
`/': Permission denied
That doesn't really help, since it references an old LFS build method. If you built LFS according to the 6.1.1 instructions,
then $LFS is *supposed* to be owned by root, and the test should pass. The problem is likely to be the opposite. What is the
output of "ls -ld /"?
Yes, / (i.e. $LFS in non-chroot'ed environment) is owned by root:
drwxrwxrwt 25 root root 4096 ...
It seems to me that this exactly is the reason why user dummy cannot set times
of /, isn't it?
Most likely. However, it is not *supposed* to be able to in order for the test
to pass.
As far as I understand, the test tries to set times of /. If we execute the test as user dummy and dummy does nto have permission to
set times of /, the test is supposed to fail, right?
If so, how is the test supposed to pass when executed as dummy?
If not, then I'm definitely missing smth...
