Package: liblockfile-bin
Version: 1.09-6
Severity: important

On Debian/Hurd, the dotlockfile binary has the wrong permissions:

(sid_hurd-i386-dchroot)olebole@exodar:~$ ls -l /usr/bin/dotlockfile
-rw------- 1 root root 13960 Jun  2  2013 /usr/bin/dotlockfile

>From the manpage:

dotlockfile  is  installed with attribute SETGID mail and thus can also
be used to lock and unlock mailboxes even if the mailspool directory is
only writable by group mail.

The wrong permissions make dotlockfile unusable on Hurd.

Best regards

Ole
