[David Parsley <parsley@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hard to say where this bug was; worse, I can't reproduce it now. :-(  But, the setup was like this:
- parent directory, 'rawpics', was setgid to group 'parsleys'
- subdirectory 20091002 inherited the setgid bit, and had pictures in it (which by setgid were group 'parsleys')
- I process 20091002, a subdirectory of rawpics
- phatch creates 20091002_small with 1/4 size pics in it; 20091002_small also inherits the setgid group 'parsleys'
- the individual pictures in 20091002_small had inconsistent group permissions; some got the user private group (group 'sally', my wife), with permission bits 600, others got the correct group from the setgid ('parsleys') with perm bits 664.

The phatch action list was just resize to 25% and save.  I can't fathom
why some of the pics saved would get the correct group from setgid, and
others would not.  Sorry if I didn't give enough detail in the original
report; even though I can't now reproduce it, I still wonder where this
bug might have been.  I just checked, and the umask is 0002, so getting
images with perms 600 doesn't make sense.

*shrug* - very strange, but for now it seems to have gone away, so it
can be closed.

Bug description:
My wife and I run phatch in a shared directory using setgid + an acl:
[parse@gisho shared]$ getfacl rawpics
# file: rawpics
# owner: 1000
# group: parsleys
user::rwx
group::rwx
other::r-x
default:user::rwx
default:group::rwx
default:other::r-x

Oddly, when I run phatch on a directory full of images, I get a resulting directory with inconsistent permissions:

This is on Fedora 12, ext4 filesystem.  It was also happening with ext3; I converted ext3->ext4 and turned on ACL's to see if that would correct the issue, but it acts the same.  The ACL on the phatch-created directory is correct; the same as the parent directory.  The phatch version is 0.1.6;
[parse@gisho shared]$ rpm -q phatch
phatch-0.1.6-5.fc12.x86_64
