[cobbler-devel] Clarification for some make restorestate functionality.

[Michael Jansen]

Hi

This is a question for those of us that develop cobbler/run it directly from git. Why is
this needed 
in restorestate? After the installation all file permissions and ownerships should be
correct. And if i 
understand that correctly those files where note saved/restored.

	if [ -n "`getent passwd apache`" ] ; then \
		chown -R apache $(DESTDIR)/var/www/cobbler; \
	else \
		chown -R www-data $(DESTDIR)/usr/share/cobbler/web/cobbler_web; \
	fi
	if [ -d $(DESTDIR)/var/www/cobbler ] ; then \
		chmod -R +x $(DESTDIR)/var/www/cobbler/web; \
		chmod -R +x $(DESTDIR)/var/www/cobbler/svc; \
	fi
	if [ -d $(DESTDIR)/usr/share/cobbler/web ] ; then \
		chmod -R +x $(DESTDIR)/usr/share/cobbler/web/cobbler_web; \
		chmod -R +x $(DESTDIR)/srv/www/cobbler/svc; \
	fi

Does anyone know the reason?

If the file permissions are not correct after make install then we should fix that.

Mike
