Hello

Just to note that I fixed this by reading about {g,u}id and some specific stuff for uuid daemon. I aligned the gid from uuidd from the /etc/passwd to the /etc/group after I searched for files and folders created from the uuidd daemon and returned none. [1] [2]

Cheers


[1]: ~# find / -uid <uuidd-uid from passwd file>
[2]: ~# find / -gid <uuidd-gid from passwd file>
