This can be used to +force programs that are normally setuid to be install without a setuid +flag, or only executable by a certain group. +.P +\fBdpkg\-statoverride\fR is a utility to manage the list of stat +overrides. It has three basic functions: adding, removing and listing +overrides. +. +.SH COMMANDS +.TP +.BI \-\-add " user group mode path" +Add an override for \fIpath\fP. \fIpath\fP does not need to exist +when this command is used; the override will be stored and used later. +Users and groups can be specified by their name (for example \fBroot\fR +or \fBnobody\fR), or by their number by prepending the number with a +‘\fB#\fR’ (for example \fB#0\fR or \fB#65534\fR). +The \fImode\fR needs to be specified in octal. + +If \fB\-\-update\fP is specified and \fIpath\fP exists, it is immediately +set to the new owner and mode. +.TP +.BI \-\-remove " path" +Remove an override for \fIpath\fP, the status of \fIpath\fP is left +unchanged by this command. +.TP +.BR \-\-list " [\fIglob-pattern\fP]" +List all overrides. If a glob pattern is specified restrict the output +to overrides which match the glob. +.TP +.B \-\-help +Show the usage message and exit. +.TP +.B \-\-force\-help +Give help about the \fB\-\-force\-\fP\fIthing\fP options (since dpkg 1.19.5). +.TP +.B \-\-version +Show the version and exit. +. +.SH OPTIONS +.TP +.BI \-\-admindir " directory" +Set the administrative directory to \fIdirectory\fP. +This is where the \fIstatoverride\fP file is stored. +Defaults to «\fI%ADMINDIR%\fP». +.TP +.BI \-\-instdir " directory" +Set the installation directory, which refers to the directory where +packages get installed (since dpkg 1.19.2). +Defaults to «\fI/\fP». +.TP +.BI \-\-root " directory" +Set the root directory to \fBdirectory\fP, which sets the installation +directory to «\fIdirectory\fP» and the administrative +directory to «\fIdirectory\fP\fB%ADMINDIR%\fP» (since dpkg 1.19.2). +.TP +.B \-\-force\-\fIthings\fP +.TQ +.BR \-\-no\-force\-\fIthings\fP ", " \-\-refuse\-\fIthings\fP +Force or refuse (\fBno\-force\fP and \fBrefuse\fP mean the same thing) +to do some things (since dpkg 1.19.5). +\fIthings\fP is a comma separated list of things specified below. +\fB\-\-force\-help\fP displays a message describing them. +Things marked with (*) are forced by default. + +\fIWarning: These options are mostly intended to be used by experts only. +Using them without fully understanding their effects may break your whole +system.\fP + +\fBall\fP: +Turns on (or off) all force options. + +\fBstatoverride\-add\fP: +Overwrite an existing stat override when adding it (since dpkg 1.19.5). + +\fBstatoverride\-remove\fP: +Ignore a missing stat override when removing it (since dpkg 1.19.5). + +\fBsecurity\-mac\fP(*): +Use platform-specific Mandatory Access Controls (MAC) based security when +installing files into the filesystem (since dpkg 1.19.5). +On Linux systems the implementation uses SELinux. +.TP +.B \-\-force +Force an action, even if a sanity check would otherwise prohibit it. +This is necessary to override an existing override. +This option is deprecated (since dpkg 1.19.5), it is replaced by +\fB\-\-force\-all\fP. +.TP +.B \-\-update +Immediately try to change the \fIpath\fP to the new owner and mode if it +exists. +.TP +.B \-\-quiet +Be less verbose about what we do. +. +.SH EXIT STATUS +.TP +.B 0 +The requested action was successfully performed. +.TP +.B 1 +For \fB\-\-list\fP, if there are no overrides or none match the supplied +glob. +.TP +.B 2 +Fatal or unrecoverable error due to invalid command-line usage, or +interactions with the system, such as accesses to the database, +memory allocations, etc. +. +.SH ENVIRONMENT +.TP +.B DPKG_ROOT +If set and the \fB\-\-instdir\fP or \fB\-\-root\fP options have not been +specified, it will be used as the filesystem root directory +(since dpkg 1.19.2). +.TP +.B DPKG_ADMINDIR +If set and the \fB\-\-admindir\fP or \fB\-\-root\fP options have not been +specified, it will be used as the \fBdpkg\fP data directory. +.TP +.B DPKG_FORCE +If set and none of the \fB\-\-force\-\fP\fI...\fP options have been +specified, it will be used as the force options to use (since dpkg 1.19.5). +.TP +.B DPKG_COLORS +Sets the color mode (since dpkg 1.18.5). +The currently accepted values are: \fBauto\fP (default), \fBalways\fP and +\fBnever\fP. +. +.SH FILES +.TP +.I %ADMINDIR%/statoverride +File which contains the current list of stat overrides of the system. It +is located in the \fBdpkg\fP administration directory, along with other files +important to \fBdpkg\fP, such as \fIstatus\fP or \fIavailable\fP. +.br +Note: \fBdpkg\-statoverride\fP preserves the old copy of this file, with +extension “\-old”, before replacing it with the new one. +. +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR dpkg (1). -- cgit v1.2.3
