Problems with openpkg rc --eval all env
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi! I'm using ~eval `openpkg rc --eval all env` to setup the paths for a openpkg instance in the system login script. This works fine except that the directory which is created under /tmp could not be deleteted since the owner of the dir is the management user and therefore the calling user is not able to delete the directory. Any idea how to fix this behaviour? cheerio ~ Steve -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFH086aQftxpMD/nVkRAgysAKDRf5Z+i2kL0ArpzlFtiqbMi2TDlgCfUUhD pmTyiZMmdXsbJTV2XMmnOlY= =0Kk+ -END PGP SIGNATURE- __ OpenPKG http://openpkg.org Developer Communication List openpkg-dev@openpkg.org

Hi! Hello Steffen, I'm using ~eval `openpkg rc --eval all env` to setup the paths for a openpkg instance in the system login script. This works fine except that the directory which is created under /tmp could not be deleteted since the owner of the dir is the management user and therefore the calling user is not able to delete the directory. Any idea how to fix this behaviour? I would suggest that you create the corresponding sudo entry in /etc/sudoers and use /usr/bin/sudo the_command_acting_in_tmp . But ... Why is your application not cleaning the temporary files in /tmp .. that would be the good question to ask, IMHO.

The command dont need no special privileges. It outputs a shell sniptlet to set ENV-vars for the openpkg instance. | | But ... Why is your application not cleaning the temporary files in /tmp .. that would be the good question to ask, IMHO. Well, the output of openpkg rc --eval all env results in something like . /tmp/rc-20080309163846-95357/rc.tmp; rm -rf /tmp/rc-20080309163846-95357 2/dev/null || true which infact tries to delete the Temp Dir but due to the SUID stuff in the 'openpkg' command the temp dir is owned by the Openpkg Mgmt user. But as rse pointed out a openpkg --keep-privileges does the trick.
