[Bug 584701] Re: Cannot delete videos from MythTV

 

Marking this as wont fix. I've heard arguments on both sides, but we
cannot assume that a user wants to be able to delete files through
mythvideo. MythTV simply requests that the operating system delete the
file. Permissions set up at this point are key. Perhaps this will be
fixed in a future version with the introduction of ACL's but until then
I won't be fixing this.

Title:
  Cannot delete videos from MythTV

Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Whenever I copy a video file using Thunar into MythTV's videos folder,
  the default permissions eventually won't let me delete that file from
  MythTV Media -> Videos. The original permissions are:

  <desktop_user>:mythtv rw-r--r--

  and (IMHO) they should be defaulted to:

  <desktop_user>:mythtv rw-rw-r--
