GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 584688
ACL default mask is not taken into account when copying files from a FAT partition
Last modified: 2021-06-18 15:12:53 UTC
Please describe the problem: When moving a file from a USB stick or memory card (fat16 or fat32) to a ext3 drive mounted with ACL support, default mask of the destination folder is not respected : thought the default mask of the destination folder is set to rwx, the effective mask of the moved or copied file is ---, making other ACL permissions ineffective. Steps to reproduce: 1. Create a folder with an ACL default mask set to rwx 2. Move a file from a USB stick to this folder Actual results: Mask of the file in the destination folder is --- Expected results: Mask should be rwx, according to the default mask Does this happen every time? Yes Other information: On Arch Linux, mask is set to r_x, which is better but still incorrect.
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version of Files (nautilus), then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
