 A much less painful workaround is to unmount fdesc before installing.

 Ah, that works, but no man page for fdesc and no real idea what's going
 on.

 fdesc implements /dev/fd. It should have a man page; that is a bug.
 (There is actually an fd(4) page for /dev/fd, but it makes no mention
 of fdesc. This also raises the question of whether the floppy driver
 has a man page.)

 It should also accept chown/chmod operations that do not actually
 change the attributes of its objects, instead of just failing
 unconditionally. I'm pretty sure that's what it's doing and that it's
 what causes the behavior you're seeing.

 However there seems to be mount_fdesc(8)/fd(4) and fdc(4); I agree that
 mount_fdesk(8) should refer to fd(4) and vice-versa.

 Interestingly, on a system of mine where I checked, /dev/fd contains
 files dating from 2004, and fdesc is unmounted; I guess that if it's
 not obsolete, it's probably a functionality very rarely expected by
 applications?

State-Changed-Why:
with an unwriteable /dev/fd, there's nothing we can do about this.  a simple
workaround has been provided (and fdesc probably doesn't need to be mounted
anyway...)
