See https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir- list/2011-October/msg00104.html and https://www.redhat.com/archives /libvir-list/2011-October/msg00110.html for the upstream response. The first message describes the proper fix (switching from chown to acls in the dac security code). The second suggests using a readonly mount for the isos.

You can either mount it elsewhere, or else have /etc/init/libvirt unshare a new mount namespace and remount the mirror directory read-only in place before starting libvirtd. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to libvirt in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/691590 Title: libvirt should not take ownership of ISO images To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/libvirt/+bug/691590/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
