It's arguable whether the "easy" fix is to write a trivial utility, or
to rejigger all my build and install scripts.
Not knowing what your build scripts look like, I don't know the answer.
I'm assuming you have some manual work to do because you are building on
several different machines, and I was assuming that due to that fact, the
packaging step was not part of the build steps. In that case, it would be
a trivial, change package command from running on a windows box to running
on a linux box.
It might be a simple assumption, but I very much doubt you would have to
rejigger *all* your build scripts.
In any case, it's done. Here it is, it's mostly a cut&paste from another
zip utility I wrote long ago.
I'm not sure what this does, I really *really* hope it doesn't set the
attrs of all files to a+x.
In any case, if it works, it's done, let's move on (I still prefer
separate packages per OS though).
