If \fBpacrepairfile\fR is called in an environment, such as a shell function or script being used in a pipe, where \&\fIstdin\fR is not connected to a terminal but does not contain files to reset, \&\fBpacrepairfile\fR should be called with \fIstdin\fR closed. For POSIX-compatible shells, this can be done with \f(CW\*(C`<&\-\*(C'\fR. .PP In order for \fBpacrepairfile\fR to reset a file's properties, the package which owns the file must have MTREE data.
