I was moving my files back and forth to and from CD-RWs, and I just
realised that my CDs were made with rational rockridge (sets everything to
owned by root, read-only, and removes suid bits, and sets world-readable
to everything), instead of standard rockridge extensions. Whoops!
Specifically, /usr/X11R6, /usr/local, /usr/lib, and /home were messed up.
I've pretty much got /usr/local under control, but what should I do with
the other three? I've already run suidregister, and fixed my GPG/PGP permissions.
Is there any way (on a Debian system), that I can get apt to re-download
and install the packages I have currently installed over top of what's
already here, to fix things?
At least I'm getting good performance with reiserfs! .-)
