abderrahim opened a new issue #1459: URL: https://github.com/apache/buildstream/issues/1459
Trying to build qemu ([tarball](https://download.qemu.org/qemu-5.2.0.tar.xz)), I noticed that buildstream stages some files as executable even though they shouldn't be. For instance ```python >>> import tarfile >>> tar = tarfile.open('qemu-5.2.0.tar.xz') >>> tar.getmember('qemu-5.2.0/pc-bios/hppa-firmware.img').get_info() {'name': 'qemu-5.2.0/pc-bios/hppa-firmware.img', 'mode': 436, 'uid': 1000, 'gid': 1000, 'size': 785696, 'mtime': 1607446784, 'chksum': 7844, 'type': b'0', 'linkname': '', 'uname': 'fluxion', 'gname': 'fluxion', 'devmajor': 0, 'devminor': 0} ``` where 436 is 664 in octal. However in the sandbox ```bash $ ls -l pc-bios/hppa-firmware.img -rwxr-xr-x 1 abderrahim abderrahim 785696 Nov 11 2011 pc-bios/hppa-firmware.img ``` that is 755. I see the tar plugin does some [funny stuff with the permissions](https://github.com/apache/buildstream/blob/master/src/buildstream/plugins/sources/tar.py#L67), the error certainly lies in there. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
