Package: libdpkg-ruby1.8
Version: 0.3.1
Severity: minor

apt-get upgrade just now displayed this message:

   /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/debian.rb:77: warning: Insecure world writable dir /tmp/., 
mode 041777

30 times in a row.

I think it simply makes no sense, as 1777 are perfectly normal permissions for 
/tmp.

If this indeed is a valid warning, this would probably indicate a bug, as
using /tmp in an insecure way is not a problem of /tmp permissions, but of
program logic.
