Comment 13 for bug 242618

Hello,

Ok so I am in the exact same situation as Petr Stehlik. I just managed to convert a whole family from windows media center to ubuntu hardy, and they need a big shared directory where all users in the same group "users" may share stuff (pictures, music, and so on). Umask in /etc/profile is set to 002 instead of the default 022 ; it therefore work fluently in a term, nautilus won't take the new umask into account.

After spending so much time and energy explain how Ubuntu & gnome are so nice and easy to use, I feel utterly stupid having to say to them that this isn't possible because of a bug in gnome pending for the past 3 years or so.

What am I supposed to do ? switch to KDE ?

This is absurd. Please fix.

Thank you for all your work and efforts.
Cheers
