Package: bzr-builddeb
Version: 0.92
Severity: normal
Hi,
When unpacking a tarball with normal tar the permissions of the tarballs
contents are filtered through the set umask. So for example directories in
the tarball with permission 777 become 755 when your umask is the standard
022. When bzr-builddeb unpacks upstream tarballs this isn't the case though.
This is a bit annoying as the make dist process of autoconf sets directories
in the tarball to 0777. Resulting in world writable directories when building
a package :(

This bug has been reported against an ancient version of
python (2.5/3.1), that was last released with Debian 6.0 (squeeze). But
even squeeze-lts has now reached end-of-life and is no longer supported.
The bug is assumed to be fixed (or no longer relevant) in newer python
releases and therefore I'm closing this report now. If the problem is
still reproducible in the currently supported versions (python2.7,
python3.5/python3.6), feel free to provide more information, reopen
and reassign this bug report.
Andreas
