In order to give it these executable permissions when you build your distribution use a
---
dist-hook:
chmod 755 your_script
---
in your top level Makefile.
Hope this helps.

I have a shell script which I want to run as part of a testsuite. However
when I do a 'make distcheck' this script (which does not get configured or

Since I want to be able to properly deal with a read only source tree,
what should I do?
