rmdir unable to remove directory than is 0wned by me and has me as group
it might just be some finer details that I misses about the filesystem...
could you please fill me in :)
I did
sudo mkdir /usr/share/test
sudo chown christian:christian /usr/share/test
rmdir /usr/share/test
rmdir:
Try rm -r --interactive=never [directory name].
