reopen 543816
thanks

I can still reproduce it in testing (version 1.0.9.10, sorry, I can see a 
slightly newer version in unstable, but installing it would upgrade too 
many things so I did not test). As a user, I mounted a remote directory 
using sshfs. Inside it, I have a subdirectory with mode 700. As root:

# cd /home/glisse/saclay/nancy-mail
-su: cd: /home/glisse/saclay/nancy-mail: Permission denied

As myself, I changed to that directory, called "sudo apt-get update", and 
it ended with:

Fetched 1,463 kB in 50s (29.0 kB/s)
E: Unable to change to /home/glisse/saclay/nancy-mail/ - chdir (13: 
Permission denied)
