Comment (by ttcoder):
Might be something different between our systems, korli:
{{{
~/> chmod 666 /etc/profile # also tried 777 (incl. x bit)
~/> ll /etc/profile
-rw-rw-rw- 1 user root 2243 Jul 30 02:40 /etc/profile
~/> su tts_guest
su: /bin/bash: Permission denied
}}}
Looking again at /system/lib I see that the `x86/` subfolder indeed has
faulty rights (500 instead of 555), but bash-4.3.42-1-x86_gcc2.hpkg
theoritically would not access x86 libs anyway IIUC
Another odd test idea I've had: making a bfs copy of the packagefs bash
(only bash itself, not its libs) into /tmp, and using that -- turns out it
yields a different error, "killed by death":
{{{
~/> useradd -s /tmp/New\ folder/bash tts_guest
~/> su tts_guest
Killed (by death)
}}}
strace:
{{{
