>Originator:     Julien T. Letessier
>Release:        Zoularis/Solaris8
>Organization:
Sun Labs Europe
>Environment:
SunOS mikdemia 5.8 Generic_108528-15 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-Enterprise
>Description:
POSIX chown uses a colon to separate user and group, not a period. The period is accepted by GNU chown (from the fileutils) as a separator, as well as the colon.
>How-To-Repeat:
Build gdm on Solaris.
>Fix:
One patch file to change. 'chown' and 'chmod' should probably also be changed to '${CHOWN}' and '${CHMOD}'.
