Similar to fowners, I counted 161 usages of fperms though the grep below is |
| 14 |
not necessarily correct or exhaustive. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
$ grep -ri fperms .|grep bin|grep usr|wc -l |
| 17 |
161 |

In Chrome OS, the switch to llvm-strip/objcopy broke some things like |
| 20 |
reboot/shutdown (and more) etc. |
| 21 |
as this functionality relied on group ownership for the power management |
| 22 |
tools. |

I could imagine that different tools similarly may need group ownership |
| 25 |
etc. for the tasks they need to perform. |
