Description Christian Lohmaier 2013-05-20 21:12:07 CEST

Description of problem:
The root partition/folder is not owned by root after installing Mageia 3 using the dual-arch iso.

This causes the pam_timestamp_check to fire (and that fires quite often)

Actually not sure whether it is the case after the initial install, or whether triggered by one of the packages I did install afterwards (gnome desktop) - might also be related to enabling auto-login for the user (but I only did create one user besides the root one, so might not be related).

Since I cannot pin it down, lowering severity, and after all there is an easy workaround (chown root:root /)

Reproducible:

did not happen on another install - so probably was a mistyped command from me after installation. â closing.
