Description

The bool/UserContainerLoggerTest.ROOT_LOGROTATE_RotateWithSwitchUserTrueOrFalse/0 test runs a binary from the tester's home directory as the user nobody. This can fail depending on how permissive the directory permissions are (i.e. it requires traverse permission for others).

This will work:

drwxr-xr-x+ 84 alex  staff   2.8K Nov  2 19:56 alex/

This will fail:

drwx------. 55 jpeach jpeach 4096 Nov 10 09:00 /home/jpeach/
