Bug#473545: fuse-utils: /dev/fuse belongs to group root after reboot (udev)

Bug#473545: fuse-utils: /dev/fuse belongs to group root after reboot (udev)
found 473545 2.7.4-2 severity 473545 important tags 473545 + patch thanks Hi there! I remember that when I installed sshfs back in July the only thing I did was adding the normal user to group fuse and then everything worked like a charm. However, now that I needed it again, there is a permission error: = l...@gismo:~$ sshfs IP: ~/sshfs Enter passphrase for key '/home/luca/.ssh/id_rsa': fuse: failed to open /dev/fuse: Permission denied l...@gismo:~$ ls -l /dev/fuse crw-rw 1 root root 10, 229 2009-10-16 23:15 /dev/fuse l...@gismo:~$ = I guess the problem is that everytime the system restarts, udev recreates the node, but does not change the ownership. The solution is to install the following udev rules file: --8---cut here---start-8--- KERNEL==fuse, GROUP=fuse --8---cut here---end---8--- With it, everything in postinst and initscript should be unnecessary, given the fact that udev will automatically change the group permission every time the fuse module is loaded. Because the group fuse is not a standard group, the rule above can not be included in udev, which at first I thought was the correct place. BTW, the workaround in the initscript is in the wrong place: in *any* case (thus even when the module has already been loaded), group ownership should be checked. Finally, the severity is IMHO important since after the first reboot /dev/fuse is not available anymore for non-root (as group) users.
