Package: googleearth-package
Version: 0.5.3
Severity: normal
try running make-googleearth-package as root. You will notice it download
the GoogleEarthLinux.bin installer, then it merrily announces 'Success!'
but the package is nowhere to be found!
Running it as normal user works as expected, (the .deb is found in
current directory.)
A little investigation revealed that this is due to incorrect permissions
of the 'control' directory:
1) open up /usr/bin/make-googleearth-package and in line 397 remove the
'>&2' from the 'dpkg-deb' command
2) now you will notice the script fail with
dpkg-deb: building package `googleearth' in
`./googleearth_4.2.205.5730+0.5.3-1_i386.deb'.
dpkg-deb: control directory has bad permissions 2755 (must be >=0755 and <=0775)
