Hello,

That bug is not fixed in 17.10 !

For reference : https://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?pid=21823638#p21823638

tl;dr → umask is set at 002 in ~/.profile AND in /etc/login.defs
but new folders created through Nautilus ( or terminal ) don't grant write permission for group.
Unless if created in desktop folder ( why ? ).

That's a big problem in multi-users environment.

Other curiosity, I don't have that problem with Budgie 17.10 where setting umask at 002 in /etc/login.defs works as expected.
