Package: detachtty
Version: 9
Severity: wishlist

Currently, detachtty unconditionally sets the umask to 077 before
opening the socket.  This bothers me somewhat because I would like to
make the socket accessible to a group rather than just a single user.
(Even an option telling the program that I know it thinks it's a bad
idea but I'd really like to would be nice.)

Removing the umask fixing can be accomplished easily by removing lines
80, 128, and 160 of detachtty.c

Thank you very much.
