Is there a good way to get file permission changes into ones source package automaticly ?
This is my scenario: I have rebuilt the build system for the package ketm to automake/autoconf. This has generated a new configure file. So far so good. Problem is that the diff from the original source doesn't include file permissions. So when porters/build robots try build the package this happends extracting original source code patching original code using ketm_0.0.6-1.diff.gz trying to run ./configure /bin/sh: ./configure: /bin/sh: bad interpreter: Permission denied I could fix the problem by manually by adding a chmod +x ./configure somewhere in the rules section. But manually adding a diff seems somewhat clumsy. -- Magnus Ekdahl +46-(0)739-287181 public key available at http://oxtan.campus.luth.se/magnus.public Key fingerprint = 18DE CB62 8A86 374E 824E 09ED 1987 4B18 1213 79F6
