Package: kernel-image-2.6.8-powerpc
Version: 2.6.8-6
Severity: normal


chmod commands on files on hfs partitions tend to give weird
results, e.g.:

original:
-rw-r--r--
after chmod g+w:
-----w--w-
after chmod g-w:
----------
after unmounting and remounting the partition:
-r--r--r--

I assume this is kernel-related, since with a 2.4 kernel, chmod
commands mostly got ignored on this hfs partition. Anyhow, the
maintainer of coreutils doesn't consider this a problem with
chmod.

The patches by Horms and Roman have been merged some years ago,
marking as closed.
