Bug#763939: lost+found directories owner changed from root
Package: apt
Version: 1.1~exp3
Severity: minor
I'm not sure that it is proper for the lost+found directories to have
their owner be changed.
$ locate /lost+found|xargs ls -ld
drwx------ 2 root root 12288 2005-07-21 /home/lost+found
drwx------ 2 root root 16384 2005-07-21 /lost+found
drwx------ 2 _apt root 16384 2013-03-11 /var/cache/apt/archives/lost+found
drwx------ 2 _apt root 12288 2013-07-26 /var/lib/apt/lists/lost+found
drwx------ 2 root root 12288 2005-07-21 /var/lost+found
Only root has any business accessing lost+found directories.
