Hey all- I ran into a strange problem with rpmbuild on fedora 8 recently, and wanted to know if anyone knew about it. I recently started a probject for a fuse filesystem (http://feodrahosted.org/s3fs). I build my releases with a spec file in the tarball, so that I can use rpmbuild -ts to generate a src.rpm directly from said release. It works great, but every time I do this, regardless of what permissions I have on the spec file in the tarball, rpmbuild changes just the spec file permissions to be 0600. I wouldn't have noticed, if it were not for an rpmlint warning complaining of strange permissions on the spec file. So is this something anyone else has seen? Is it a bug in rpmbuild? Or that done intentionally for some reason there, and if so, is the rpmlint check now out of date?
This is a known issue, I filed this bug last August. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=253648 -- John Dennis <jdennis@xxxxxxxxxx> -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
