Hi Henning, which files in particular have the wrong permissions? They look fine on my machine.

I suspect that the problem is that Hadrian's bindist Makefile is using plain `cp` to copy binaries, etc. into place. This is almost certainly wrong. We should be using either `install` or, at very least, `cp -p`.

I guess that 'install' is better, yes.

Henning, Could you perhaps try testing the Debian 11 binary distribution from !8763 (specifically, the artifact from [1] when it is finished)? I believe this change will fix your issue. Cheers, - Ben [1] https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/jobs/1130855
