Dear list members,

thank you for the detailed explanation why I got a strange
ownership of emacs related files.

I am afraid that my question about ownership has moved the
thread from permissions to ownership. I would like to
remember that the question that was originally posted by
Randy Bush in this thread was about 777 directories. These
777 directories also exist on my system - even after
pkg_delete -v -d -a, rm -rvf /usr/local, and a fresh
installation of emacs via make fetch-recursive, make, and
make install in /usr/ports/editors/emacs (ports version FreeBSD:
ports/UPDATING,v 1.790 2009/03/16 22:33:17 beat Exp).

With best regards
Joachim Griesche
