When `lintian' sees a non-executable file with 755 permissions, rather than 644, `lintian' will throw a warning like: W: wp-mirror-mediawiki-extensions: executable-not-elf-or-script usr/share/wp-mirror-mediawiki/extensions/TimedMediaHandler/COPYING 2) Files which should have permissions set to 644 TimedMediaHandler/COPYING TimedMediaHandler/TimedMediaHandler.i18n.php TimedMediaHandler/handlers/WAVHandler/WAVHandler.php 3) Technical details DEB standards version: 3.9.6 GIT branch: wmf/1.24wmf22 Sincerely Yours, Kent -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
