Description Anthony Donnelly 2015-01-12 17:19:13 UTC 
When passing -g to install when creating directories with -d, only the top
directory gets the correct group.

For example, if I were to create the direct test/test/test while none of those
exist, using:

install -o root -g wheel -dm755 test/test/test/

Only the the very last directory is set to root:wheel, while the two previous
directories are set to root:amzo.

This is the case even when using sudo. I'm unsure if this is intended, but all
directories created with install(1) should have the owner and group set to the
ones passed.

Environment:
FreeBSD 10.1-RELEASE

Hi,

Due to an issue with the backend FreeBSD Bugzilla database, your original PR and any updates to it since have been lost.  I've recreated the original PR as best as I can, however any attachments and updates you submitted to the PR have been lost.  Please could you resubmit them?

Thanks, and apologies.
