Just started using waydroid, and when backing up my home dir with rsync noticed that waydroid deposits things in the above mentioned dir that are owned by root. There are no waydroid bugs filed. I couldn't find anything by searching that was clear as to whether I can just change the owner on all those dirs/files to the ordinary user, or whether this should be considered a bug. If this is a one-time issue caused by just starting to use waydroid and I can just change the owner, I'll do that. Anyone know?
BTW, the dirs/files have various user IDs as well. There are even several dirs that aren't owned by either my user or root, but simply show a number for both the user and user ID. So it may not be a simple matter to fix this.
I filed https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2324194 and was told "It's not great but it is expected, yes. You will break Waydroid if you try to change those permissions." So for now it will be necessary to rsync my home dir as root.
