Hi. I'd like to use the gnome-scores module to save scores in a game I'm
writing in Python. Gnome scores expects the application to be installed as
root with the setgid bit set. I have a couple of questions about this:
1) What are the security implications of installing a Python script with the
setgid bit set? A google search on the subject found a lot of articles
advising against installing scripts with the setuid bit set, but did not say
anything about the setgid bit specifically.
2) How do you test code using gnome-scores without installing the program or
running it as root?
Cheers,
Nat.
