Bug description:
READ ME FIRST
=============
This is a cosmetic issue. The warning message is just that— a warning. Though the message comes up, there is no problem with the install/upgrade happening like normal. That said, feel free to ignore it. It will get fixed, but it's nowhere near as urgent as bugs that actually result in the wrong behavior rather than just a simple extra message.
update-notifier SRU
-------------------
[Impact]
Cosmetic. Warnings when installing packages using update-notifier downloading stuff
[Test case]
Install flashplugin-installer with apt and check that the output does
not contain a message like this:
W: Can't drop privileges for downloading as file '...' couldn't be
accessed by user '_apt'
[Regression Potential]
It just chowns /var/lib/update-notifier/package-data-
downloads/partial/ to _apt:root, there should not be any regression.
Original report
---------------
Recently we got new versions for synaptic 0.82+build1 & apt 1.1.3, but
now get that error when installing/upgrading some packages:
Setting up libc6-dbg:amd64 (2.21-0ubuntu5) ...
Processing triggers for libc-bin (2.21-0ubuntu5) ...
W: Can't drop privileges for downloading as file '/root/.synaptic/tmp//tmp_cl' couldn't be accessed by user '_apt'. - pkgAcquire::Run (13: Permission denied)
From nautilus, i'm seeing a /root/ folder locked (x on its icon) and
the folder is empty (no /.synaptic/ sub-folder or file), so the above
error.
oem@u64:~$ ls -l .synaptic
