Dunno. I did not file the bug. I just know it's not in Lintian. :) > If ld creates those files with the executable bit set, it feels weird > that we have to work around that by manually removing that bit again. Is the bit required? With a view toward security, it seems disadvantageous to grant execution privileges to files not intended to run in Debian. I checked both the UEFI [1] and the systemd boot [2] specs, but found nothing about the executable bit. I planned to unset the bit locally until I realized my GRUB2 boot sequence may not use those files.
