[Bug 484786] Re: Better support for btrfs snapshots
Nowadays, btrfs snapshots can only be taken by the owner of the source subvol. https://btrfs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ch-mount- options.html#btrfs-specific-mount-options: > Historically, any user could create a snapshot even if he was not owner of the source subvolume, the subvolume deletion has been restricted for that reason. The subvolume creation has been restricted ... I just tested this in a Jammy VM (FYI btrfsctl was replaced by `btrfs subvolume snapshot`): ``` ubuntu@bj:~$ uname -a Linux bj 5.15.0-75-generic #82-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jun 6 23:10:23 UTC 2023 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux ubuntu@bj:~$ dpkg -l| grep btrfs ii btrfs-progs 5.16.2-1 amd64Checksumming Copy on Write Filesystem utilities ubuntu@bj:~$ mount | grep btrfs /dev/sda3 on /home type btrfs (rw,noatime,space_cache=v2,subvolid=5,subvol=/) # Trying while /home is root owned ubuntu@bj:~$ btrfs subvolume snapshot /home ./homefoo Create a snapshot of '/home' in './homefoo' ERROR: cannot snapshot '/home': Operation not permitted # Changing ownership of the source subvol ubuntu@bj:~$ sudo chown ubuntu: /home # Trying now that /home is owned by ubuntu: ubuntu@bj:~$ btrfs subvolume snapshot /home ./homefoo Create a snapshot of '/home' in './homefoo' ``` So I don't think it's a concern anymore but I won't fiddle with the bug status and leave that to others ;) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/484786 Title: Better support for btrfs snapshots To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/apparmor/+bug/484786/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Well that's not true, at least most of the time. Only devs can make such decisions. Here I am thankful this was still opened, or I wouldn't have worked on it. And the fact you receive emails like "A possibly relevant merge request was started" means some work is underway to implement the feature. If you are CC to this BUG you should rejoice. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/39376 Title: Allow hidding of backup files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/kde-baseapps/+bug/39376/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

- Do editors in 2023 still save files like sth.txt~, sth.txt.bak and similars? Yes, they do. Some skip that when working inside git/hg/svn/… folder, some allow to use separate folder, but such files are still fairly frequent. - Would some users prefer not to see those files? Yes. For example myself. - Does KDE allow user to manage which files are hidden, and which are not? No, it doesn't. There is option to show or hide „Hidden files” but no way to influence which file is considered to be „Hidden”. So functionality-wise bug is just as sound and valid, as it was when it was reported. Projects make various priorities, open-source projects even more so (considering people come to work on what they fancy or what they find troublesome). Some bugs are less lucky. But if there is to be any hope, the open issue means the thought of doing sth is not abandoned. And it is somewhat heart-warming to get mail that sb. started working on issue I reported 20 years ago (OK, OK, I reported one of the early dupes, not this one) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/39376 Title: Allow hidding of backup files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/kde-baseapps/+bug/39376/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
