#93: Incorrect permissions on library install ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: guest | Owner: Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: Cabal-1.8 Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.1.4 Severity: normal | Resolution: fixed Keywords: | Difficulty: normal Ghcversion: 6.4.2 | Platform: Linux ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Changes (by duncan): * status: new => closed * resolution: => fixed Comment: Fixed in cabal head and the 1.6 branch. The behavior now when installing is that we ignore the permissions the files had in the build tree and the user's umask. We explicitly set permissions for all files we install. The only inconsistency is that we're not yet setting the permissions of directories we create when installing. So they currently inherit the umask of the installing user. In the case in this bug that will work fine. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/93#comment:7 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
