Hi, there is a symlink/owner problem in the KDE file manager kfm. I found it on my SuSE 7.0 but I'm not sure if it is an original SuSE package or not, rpm doesn't know about it: paul@ps:/tmp > rpm -qfi /usr/opt/kde/bin/kfm die Datei »/usr/opt/kde/bin/kfm« gehört zu keinem Paket what means that the kfm binary is not known to rpm. However, I suspect that it is included in all KDE1 distributions. kfm will create a cache directory in /tmp without checking for correct onwership named kfm-cache-UID where UID is the numerical user id. Then it will write to files in the cache dir, for example: root@ps:/tmp/kfm-cache-500 > ls -la drwxrwxrwx 2 rws uboot 4096 Apr 18 21:18 . drwxrwxrwt 15 root root 770048 Apr 18 21:16 .. lrwxrwxrwx 1 rws uboot 18 Apr 18 21:18 index.html -> /home/paul/.bashrc -rw-r--r-- 1 rws uboot 0 Apr 18 21:16 index.txt root@ps:/tmp/kfm-cache-500 > ls -la /home/paul/.bashrc -rw-r--r-- 1 paul users 1458 Jan 23 13:56 /home/paul/.bashrc and after running kfm as user 500: root@ps:/tmp/kfm-cache-500 > ls -la /home/paul/.bashrc -rw-r--r-- 1 paul users 271 Apr 18 21:19 /home/paul/.bashrc The impact is obvious :-/ Ihq.
