tor issues missleading permission warning when torrc overrides User config directive of default torrc
Tor issues the follwoing warn loglevel entry when it starts even though permissions are fine (drwx------):
[warn] Fixing permissions on directory <datadir>
this occurs only if the torrc overrides the default-torrc's User parameter besides this warn loglevel tor runs fine nonetheless.
warning is issued with:
tor --runasdaemon 0 --defaults-torrc /usr/share/tor/defaults-torrc -f torrc
no warning with:
tor --runasdaemon 0 -f torrc
both (defaults-torrc and torrc) specify a User config parameter.
