Hello,
Right now tar preserves the ownership of files when it extracts source
tarballs. This leaks to the final installation sometimes (linux and
subversion). Is it a good idea to pass --no-same-owner
--no-same-permissions to tar in the "unpack" script?
That should be fine, but do you mind explaining in a little more detail
exactly how linux and subversion leak ownership settings?
ls -l /usr/src/linux-2.6.11.12/include # that was my bug in
# debian-style-headers.sh
ls -l /usr/include/apr-0 # Bug in Subversion
That would show UIDs of 500 and 1001. These are UIDs of Linux and
Subversion packagers.
It is worked around in r292 by an explicit chown for Subversion and "cp
-r" instead of "cp -a" for /usr/src/linux-2.6.11.12.
