New comment by eli-schwartz on void-packages repository https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/38682#issuecomment-1217313363 Comment: > Upstream migrated from autotools to meson. Autotools was setting the bit before, now meson does not set it as setuid so we have to set it manually. That is my best guess. That's interesting because it's actually set in Meson's permissions: https://github.com/lxc/lxc/blob/1df8895204244384c468a809f2da5cae2bc44c57/src/lxc/cmd/meson.build#L99
