Hi Steve, I don't disagree that there's an element of risk as noted in the SRU description and that this is definitely changing the existing behaviour. But my opinion is that the impacted set of users are going to be few if at all: - those that create homedirs using pam *and* - those that rely on *other* users' HOME having 0755 (as opposed to 0750) For those that end up needing 0755 can manually change the permissions as a workaround.
However, if you think the risk outweigh any benefits, please reject the SRU and I'll communicate back to the user who requested this change. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1957024 Title: pam-mkhomedir does not honor private home directories To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pam/+bug/1957024/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
