For the first time, I have a cron file for a package. The file is in the
debian directory:
ezili:~/Debian/packages/bigbrother/bigbrother-1.08a> ls -alt debian/cron.daily
-rw-r--r-- 1 bortz bortz 75 Dec 8 14:20 debian/cron.daily
And the debian/rules contain:
dh_installcron
which was put there by dh_make.
But the file installed in debian/tmp is executable:
ezili:~/Debian/packages/bigbrother/bigbrother-1.08a> ls -alt
debian/tmp/etc/cron.daily/
total 3
drwxr-xr-x 2 bortz bortz 1024 Dec 8 15:55 .
-rwxr-xr-x 1 bortz bortz 75 Dec 8 15:55 bigbrother
drwxr-xr-x 4 bortz bortz 1024 Dec 8 15:55 ..
lintian complains and of course cron does, too:
/etc/cron.daily/bigbrother:
run-parts: failed to exec /etc/cron.daily/bigbrother: Exec format error
run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/bigbrother exited with return code 1
Whose fault is it? dh_installcron? (It just calls install without the -m
option.) Mine?
