I've setup a local repo with reprepro, accessible via a local web server. Thus every file and dir in its file sub-tree owns to www-data:www-data
. The problem is that every time I add a new package I need to use sudo, that makes all the permissions of the files involved to change, and every time I have to fix this by hand.
Any clue how can I avoid this? Maybe using a sticky bit?
Thanks in advance.
sudo
is changing your file permissions. Can you provide an example? In any case,acl
is often an option if you want to "force" permissions. See for example https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/115632/4671. If you give more details, I may be able to offer a more detailed response. – Faheem Mitha Sep 09 '17 at 12:00www-data
