Package: kernel-package
Version: 13.014+nmu1
Severity: normal
I build Linux image packages for some of my diskless client systems,
and install using schroot on the file server.
The TFTP server is set to serve the kernel image and initrd with
symlinks in /var/lib/tftpboot/<client>/{vmlinuz-rd,initrd.img} pointing
(indirectly) to the latest installed client kernel.
However, the installed kernel is not readable by the TFTP server and I
get repeated failed requests until I realise the problem and change the
permissions of kernel file from 600 to 644.
The contents of the kernel image file are not a secret (if that were
the case, then the package file in /var/cache/archives would be an
information leak), so there's no good reason not to install
/boot/vmlinuz-* with mode 644.
