I've got a strange permission problem when I build on our build server
that was recently updated from Ubuntu-14.04 to Ubuntu-16.04.
On our Ubuntu-16.04 server, on most of the platform/packages/
subdirectories the packages are getting created with other having no
permissions at all:
rootfs/platform-ec1c/packages$ tree -d -L 1 -p
.
├── [drwxr-x---] attr-2.4.47
├── [drwxr-x---] avahi-0.7
├── [drwxr-x---] bash-4.3.30
├── [drwxr-x---] boost_1_67_0
├── [drwxr-x---] busybox-1.29.3
├── [drwxr-x---] coreutils-8.29
...
This results in all files contained within those directories to also
have no perms for other, and get installed on my target in the same way.
This in turn then causes permission problems to occur.
I'm at a loss as to what to look for to resolve this problem.
Suggestions?
I think you are building with umask 0027, so files are created with no
permissions for 'other' users. This should not affect the contents of
the platform-ec1c/packages/*.ipk files, or the contents of the
platform-ec1c/root/ directory, or the contents of the
platform-ec1c/images/root.* images, which should all contain files with
the correct permissions for the target.
If you want the contents of platform-ec1c/packages to be created so that
they are readable by 'other' users, you can configure your build server
to build with umask 0022.
