Hi all, since I have received no reaction to my contribution, would like to draw your attention to it again.
It is annoying that you get an error message when extracting files from an sqlar archive using sqlite3 -Ax when this archive contains files with permission bits 0664 in subdirectories, as the directories are created without the "x" bit set. I think that is not what the user expects and should be changed. Thanks Martin > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: Winter, Martin (CT RDA IOT EWT-DE) > Gesendet: Montag, 11.
