[yocto] Setting directories permissions

[Oliver Graute]

Hello List,

I try to define a directory permission for a folder to 0775 instead of
0755 in my recipe. But somewhere in the install and packaging process
this is overwritten.

in my receipe I do this:

do_install() {
    install -m 0775 -d ${D}${sysconfdir}/folder1/folder2/


I expect this on the target:

root at box:/etc/folder1# ls -la
drwxrwxr-x    2 root     webgrp         512 Jan  1  1970 folder2

but I get only this permissions:

root at box:/etc/folder1# ls -la
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     webgrp         512 Jan  1  1970 folder2


I also tried to define it in the fs-perms.txt file. But this didn't work
either.

/etc/folder1/folder2           0775    root    webgrp  false - - -

some clue how to handle such directory permissions the yocto way?


Best Regards,

Oliver
