[Bug 1323586] Re: oneconf crashes if one apt list file is unreadable

 

I mean `umask 077`. With umask 077 the default file permissions are 600.

With umask 077 a file created by root via sudo will be unreadable for a
normal user.

Title:
  oneconf crashes if one apt list file is unreadable

Status in oneconf package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in python-apt package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  oneconf-service will crash if one of the files in
  `/etc/apt/sources.list.d` is unreadable (for example because it has
  been created using sudo and umask 077).

  In my case this is the error message

      Traceback (most recent call last):
