Hello,
I'm installing a new laptop with 12-CURRENT and ports from head
(compiled by me with poduriere); it turned out, that I was unable to
unlock a locked KDE session; digging into the problem I saw that the
component to validate the password (kcheckpass) was packaged into the
pkg with wrong perms:
$ tar tzvf /usr/PKGDIR.20160716/kde-workspace-4.11.21.txz | fgrep kcheckpass
-rwxr-xr-x 0 root wheel 14352 17 jul. 21:43 /usr/local/lib/kde4/libexec/kcheckpass
in older versions from head in December and Mai it was with perms '-rwsr-sr-x':
$ tar tzvf /usr/PKGDIR.20151230/kde-workspace-4.11.14_4.txz | fgrep kcheckpass
-rwsr-sr-x 0 root wheel 14352 dic. 31 2015 /usr/local/lib/kde4/libexec/kcheckpass
$ tar tzvf /usr/PKGDIR.20160501/kde-workspace-4.11.14_6.txz | fgrep kcheckpass
-rwsr-sr-x 0 root wheel 14352 may. 6 21:19 /usr/local/lib/kde4/libexec/kcheckpass
