R. David Murray added the comment: It occurs to me that ignoring the user's selected umask could be considered a bug by some people. A package manager for a distribution should presumably ensure the correct umask during install, but if a user is doing a direct install, it seems reasonable to think they are responsible for setting the umask they want used. There is a fuzzy line here, though, because distutils is also a bit of a package manager...
Regardless, though, Ned's observation seems to indicate this is not a regression. Tomi, do you find a different behavior in 3.2? ---------- nosy: +r.david.murray _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15890> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
