Unfortunately, there are a couple of spots where it gets really messy and directory-wide rules fail to cover it. The trickiest maintenance issue is hadoop-hdfs-httpfs, where we unpack and repack a Tomcat. Initially, I tried to do this using only the ant plugin, but I wound up with a ton of different tarfileset directives with different fileMode values to reapply the same permissions that were present in the original Tomcat distribution. This also would have been a brittle solution, because changes in the Tomcat package would risk invalidating our ant rules. A solution that preserves the original permissions reduces this kind of maintenance work.
