Yes. Would someone please explain to me how this issue is not

There would be no mechanism because tar respects the umask by
default when invoked as a non-root user. Thus, there are no
world-writable files being unpacked from CPAN dists on my machine.
Is a umask of 022 not the default setup?

Of course, even as Eric pointed out, a umask of 0002 still masks the
world writeable permissions, so I still don't see how you're getting
there and if you've configured your system to give *you* a umask of
0022, then you still shouldn't be

That surprised me, so I googled default mandriva umask. All the

In general 0002 (aka u=rwx,g=rwx,o=rx) is the right choice of umask on a
sytem where each user has their own group -- that is, where the user

Hi,
I have recently been taking more notice of CPANTS and made some changes
to DBD::ODBC to get more kwalitee. I'm basically getting a fail on
has_test_pod (http://cpants.perl.org/dist/kwalitee/DBD-ODBC) which I've
duplicated myself with Module::CPANTS::Analyse. However, I have a pod
test

The default is 1. From the Pod:

Done: CPAN.pm is patched in trunk.
And CPANPLUS I guess. I'm not sure what else happens in
