Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gconf
gconfd seems to be setting the executable bit on a file which presumably
has no need to be executable
paulm@noobuntu:~/.gconfd$ ls -l
total 1624
-rwx------ 1 paulm paulm 1654806 2011-05-05 13:54 saved_state
This could (perhaps in combination with other factors) be a security
issue and also cause warnings from security tools that look for files
with potentially dangerous or unexpected attributes.
