[Bug 794494] Re: fuse.conf permission denied

[Dimitri John Ledkov]

New installations get the right permissions, upgraded machines are not
changed to 644 as far as I can see.

Title:
  fuse.conf permission denied

Status in fuse package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  For some reason,

  -rw-r----- 1 root fuse 215 2011-06-08 12:59 /etc/fuse.conf

  However, users are not created by default members of fuse group.
  Moreover:

  adduser manu fuse

  leads still to

  fusermount: failed to open /etc/fuse.conf: Permission denied
  fusermount: option allow_other only allowed if 'user_allow_other' is set in /etc/fuse.conf

  Expected: fuse.conf is readable by all
