Comment 1 Richard Purdie 2020-10-15 08:51:55 UTC

From tumbleweed-ty-1.yocto.io

Comment 2 Stacy Gaikovaia 2020-11-12 15:54:27 UTC

Based on the difference between the two lines (6000 vs root), it looks like it might perhalps have something to do with pseudo. 

Usually root is uid 0. I know that some containerization systems have offsets for the uid for the emulated "root", is that offset 6000 in pseudo's case?

Comment 3 Randy MacLeod 2021-05-13 15:14:24 UTC

Likely fixed by the changes made to pseudo deal with permissions.
