as of 1.14, xattr_permissions=2 causes merged dir to change ownership to root. not writable by user

[koebbe]

$ mkdir lower upper workdir merged

$ ls -ld merged
drwxr-xr-x. 2 me me 40 Oct 18 11:51 merged

$ fuse-overlayfs -o lowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper,workdir=workdir,xattr_permissions=2 merged

$ ls -ld merged
dr-xr-xr-x. 2 root root 60 Oct 18 11:51 merged

Permissions are not changed when doing this with 1.13.
Perhaps I'm not understanding something. Is this expected when using xattr_permissions with 1.14?

Hmm, perhaps a more appropriate test is:

$ podman unshare fuse-overlayfs -o lowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper,workdir=workdir,xattr_permissions=2 merged

Which works as expected....in this case, consider this issue closed 😉
