On systems with remote groups, the primary user group may be remote and may not exist on the local system (i.e., it might just be a number). On the CLI, it looks like this: ```console > touch foo > l foo -rw-r--r-- 1 gamblin2 57095 0 Dec 29 22:24 foo > chmod 2000 foo chmod: changing permissions of 'foo': Operation not permitted ``` Here, the local machine doesn't know about per-user groups, so they appear as gids in `ls` output. `57095` is also `gamblin2`'s uid, but the local machine doesn't know that `gamblin2` is in the `57095` group. Unfortunately, it seems that Python's `os.chmod()` just fails silently, setting permissions to `0o0000` instead of `0o2000`. We can avoid this by ensuring that the file has a group the user is known to be a member of. - [x] Add `ensure_known_group()` in the permissions tests. - [x] Call `ensure_known_group()` on tempfile in `test_chmod_real_entries_ignores_suid_sgid`. |
