Dear Sir or Madam,
0) Context
DEB packages of `mediawiki' and many of its extensions, are prepared as part of
the WP-MIRROR project (see <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wp-mirror>).
1) Lintian
During the build process, `lintian' performs a great number of sanity checks,
including seeing if each file has file permissions appropriate to its file
type.
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/tests/browser/Gemfile
When `lintian' sees a shell script with 644 permissions, rather than 755,
`lintian' will throw a warning like:
W: wp-mirror-mediawiki-extensions: script-not-executable
usr/share/wp-mirror-mediawiki/includes/limit.sh
2) Files which should have permissions set to 644
resources/src/mediawiki.skinning/content.externallinks.css
tests/browser/Gemfile
3) Files which should have permissions set to 755
includes/limit.sh
includes/normal/UtfNormalTest2.php
maintenance/postgres/compare_schemas.pl
maintenance/postgres/mediawiki_mysql2postgres.pl
maintenance/storage/make-blobs
4) Technical details
DEB standards version: 3.9.6
GIT branch: wmf/1.24wmf22
Sincerely Yours,
Kent
