Changelog

at (3.1.8-11ubuntu3) hoary; urgency=low


  * Derooted /usr/bin/at.
  * at.c:
    - Keep real uid, only switch to daemon gid when unlinking files (the
      directory is daemon-group writeable, but the job files are owned by user).
    - Instead of creating the job file and then fchown()'ing it (which does
      not work when running as non-root), change to the real gid when
      creating the file.
  * atd.c:
    - Don't check that the file gid is equal to the execution gid (since job
      files are now always owned by "daemon".
    - setgid() to the user's gid, not to the file gid for job execution.
  * debian/rules:
    - Install /usr/bin/at as daemon:daemon 6555 instead of root:root 4755
      (running as user daemon is necessary to be allowed to send a signal to
      atd.)
    - Install /etc/at.deny as root:daemon 640 instead of root:root 0600.
  * debian/postinst:
    - Make /var/spool/cron/{atjobs,atspool} writeable for group "daemon".
    - Update permissions of /etc/at.{allow,deny} if we upgrade from a previous
      version and there is no statoverride for these files.
