Public bug reported:
In most places in Ubuntu, devpts is mounted correctly with
gid=5,mode=620, however upstart itself mounts it incorrectly in the
cases when it's not already mounted by something else:
init/main.c: if (system_mount ("devpts", "/dev/pts",
(MS_NOEXEC | MS_NOSUID)) < 0)
Compare to, say, systemd, which does this:
#ifndef TTY_GID
#define TTY_GID 5
#endif
[...]
src/core/mount-setup.c: { "devpts", "/dev/pts", "devpts",
"mode=620,gid=" STRINGIFY(TTY_GID), MS_NOSUID|MS_NOEXEC,
Please fix this up, as this will explode in special and fun ways when
pt_chown goes away and we stop falling back on it as a crutch when the
devpts permissions are wrong.
