Package: dkms
Version: 2.2.0.3-1.3
Severity: normal
The file /etc/dkms/template-dkms-mkdeb/Makefile, which I believe is
used by dkms mkdeb, makes rather dubious assumptions about permissions
in the module source. In particular, it contains the following rule:
ifeq ("$(wildcard $(NAME)-$(VERSION))", "$(NAME)-$(VERSION)")
install -d "$(SRC)"
cp -a $(NAME)-$(VERSION) $(SRC)
chmod 644 -R "$(SRC)/$(NAME)-$(VERSION)"
endif
That chmod will remove executability from any probe shell scripts,
configure scripts, or any other supporting infrastructure in the
package, which results in build failures.
