Package: psad
Version: 2.2-3.1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
with TCPWRAPPERS_BLOCK_METHOD=Y psad modifies the current permissions of
/etc/hosts.deny.
This harms other packages (here snmpd), that require read access to the TCP
wrapper configs.
From my understanding, a package must not forcefully alter permissions of
commonly used files.
At least not, if this behvior isnt't configurable in any way.
Kind regards
Joerg Delker
