setgid in /var/cache
I have a package that needs files under /var/cache to be setgid. The
files are for Crafty to allow it to "learn" chess as it plays. Part
of the installation is that I install all that Crafty has learned from
all of its user's across the internet. Then as Crafty plays locally,
it makes additions to these files under /var/cache.
I have built a Debian package that produces files with the right
ownerships and permissions if I use "--extract" on the package, but
after installation, the ownership is set root.root and permissions
are 644.
Is dpkg preventing my scheme?
Thanks
Paul Serice
