flz,
In r206043 you converted fexists() in src/lib/libpkg/file.c to use
open() instead of lstat(). Unfortunately this has the side effect of
breaking 'pkg_info -g' for unprivileged users with files that have no +r
bits. For example:
pkg_info -g sudo-1.7.4.6
Information for sudo-1.7.4.6:
Mismatched Checksums:
pkg_info: /usr/local/bin/sudo doesn't exist
pkg_info: /usr/local/bin/sudoedit doesn't exist
pkg_info: /usr/local/bin/sudoreplay doesn't exist
pkg_info: /usr/local/sbin/visudo doesn't exist
Reverting your change produces the expected behavior. So my questions
are, why was the change made, what are its benefits, and how can we fix
this problem? :)
Thanks,
Doug
