Ok, like I expected I have found NOT a single package that contains
a setuid or setgid binary. Somebody please confirm this.
If nobody objects I'm going to close or at least downgrade this
bug report.
Here is the script I have used to investigate the files:
for pkg in clisp dpkg enscript gcal gettext grep id-utils info libc6 olwm pspp sharutils textutils xview xviewg
do
dpkg -L $pkg |\
while read file
do
if [ -d $file ]
then
continue
else
echo $file
fi
done | xargs ls -l |grep '^-..s'
Since some packages only add +s in their postinst scripts I have
installed the packages first.
Regards,
Joey
