  • 1.  Error in grep-3.7-1.ppc spec

    Posted Fri December 30, 2022 01:15 PM
    Hello team!
    We discovered an issue today when trying to correct some /opt/freeware permissions.

    # rpm --setugids grep-3.7-1.ppc
    0481-002 chgrp: root is not a recognized group.
    Check the /etc/group file for all known groups.

    I extracted the spec files, and see:
    grep-3.7-1.spec:
    %defattr(-,root,root)

    This should be 
    %defattr(-,root,system)
