 Well, I've checked binary package and its permission is 0755, not
0775 as lintian says.


Which precise package did you look at?

The i386 package does indeed have the directory as 0755:

adsb@franck:~$ dpkg-deb -c 
ftp/pool/main/f/fontforge/libfontforge-dev_20120731.b-5_i386.deb | egrep 
"^d.*pkgconfig/$"

drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2014-01-01 08:34 ./usr/lib/pkgconfig/

All other architectures are 0775, however:

adsb@franck:~$ dpkg-deb -c 
ftp/pool/main/f/fontforge/libfontforge-dev_20120731.b-5_mips.deb | egrep 
"^d.*pkgconfig/$"

drwxrwxr-x root/root 0 2014-01-02 03:18 ./usr/lib/pkgconfig/


I'm not sure it's bug or not.


It may well be a bug, but not in lintian.

Regards,

Adam
