Well, I'm not that familiar with debhelper yet. I mistakenly assumed that dh_installdocs would set the permissions of the installed files. If it just copies that's nuts. BTW I think it would be more suggestive if a command that installs doc files would set the permissions right away. Is there any good reason that it doesn't? -- Manfred Wassmann PGP and GnuPG public keys available at http://germany.keyserver.net PGP: 24B81049 Fingerprint: D7 10 EE 2B 74 16 C0 64 B4 5F BA B2 90 29 3D AF GPG: 6B299971 Fingerprint: A598 A41F 57A3 5D69 83D2 8027 1274 F8CD 6B29 9971 +++ I18N ?
