Hi Matthias,
You should be able to set the executable bit for a linux executable on
Mac OS X and preserve it with tar. Any standard tar cli utility will
honor the permissions when unpacking the file. There is no need to move
it to a Linux box first.

Hi,
i am no Linux expert, although i started my career in the 80s in a company
where we worked exclusively on Xenix and Unix. But that´s a long time ago.
So please excuse my question if it sounds dumbly.
I´ve created a Linux app on MacOSX. To get this app to run under Linux the customer has
to set the "executable" flag for that app.
I want to create a tar or tar.gz of that file with that flag already set. What
steps are needed? Is it sufficient if i
set the flag on a Linux machine for that app and create a tar or tar.gz on that
machine of that app?
Or is it mandatory to set that flag on the customer machine?
Regards,
Matthias
