In the moment
os.Stat()
fails due to not existing permissionfileinfo.Name()
will be access, which we need to prevent. In that case we can't be sure, if the file exists or not anyway. Missing privileges should lead to a call ofsaveBufToFile
since this will take care of extending privileges (e.g. by invokingsudo
).Currently the behavior ignores existing files which can't be accessed due to missing permissions. They will be overwritten in the moment
sudo
is invoked without any further check if the user wants to overwrite possible existing ones.On
micro
start with such a files as parameter we will receive the complaint:So maybe we need a more plausible but more complex solution to 1. stat with more privileges and 2. ask to load/read the file with more privileges.
Fixes #3080
