Nautilus is not respecting the SGID when it copies directories

Asked by mirohe

Hi,

Both on ubuntu 16.04 and on ubuntu 18.04 have de same problem

if I have a directory with the SGID activated and within this I create with the nautilus another directory inside, the latter has the SGID.

But if I copy a directory from another place through the nautilus and paste it into the directory with SGID, the copied directory does not have the SGID.

for example:

home directory test:

$> ls -l

drwxr-sr-x 2 myuser mygroup 4096 ene 21 16:47 test

Create a new directorio called "dir1" with nautilus into of test. Result:

$> ls -l test

drwxr-sr-x 2 myuser mygroup 4096 ene 21 17:09 dir1

This is correct.

if I copy a directory from another place (for example /home/user/dir2) called "dir2" through the nautilus and paste it into the directory "test", the result is:

$> ls -l test

drwxrwsr-x 2 miguel.rodriguez miguel.rodriguez 4096 ene 21 17:09 dir1
drwxrwxr-x 2 miguel.rodriguez miguel.rodriguez 4096 ene 21 17:12 dir2

The directory dir2 not have "s" SUID in group user.

Any more this happens?
Since I can not open an issue, I do it here.

Best Regards
