drwxrwxrwt 5 root root 36864 janv. 5 22:17 /mnt/lfs/sources So user lfs is not even the owner, but everybody has right to write, and there is the "sticky" bit (last t), which just means that a file belonging to some user cannot be removed or modified by another user. Now, there may be other reasons. Your system may use acl (access control lists), or selinux, which further restrict permissions.
