it would be good to make this configurabel with something similar to `FileMode`. We are using `apt-ftpachive` in a shared ennvironment. We are using `umask 0002` to give group-membery rwx-access by default. Our top-level directory has mode 02775 and group "build", so that every path created below it is again owned by that group and has the SGID-bit set. But directories and files created by `apt-ftparchive` lack write-permission for the group: - Permissions for files can be configured via `FileMode`, which defaults to 0644. - But there is nothing for directories, which is hard-coded to 0755. -- Package-specific info: -- /etc/apt/preferences -- Package: * Pin: release a=testing Pin-Priority: 50 -- (no /etc/apt/preferences.d/* present) -- -- (/etc/apt/sources.list present, but not submitted) -- -- (/etc/apt/sources.list.d/pbuilder.list present, but not submitted) -- -- System Information: Debian Release: 11.6 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable'), (50, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-21-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=de:en_US Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages apt depends on: ii adduser 3.118 ii debian-archive-keyring 2021.1.1 ii gpgv 2.2.27-2+deb11u2 ii libapt-pkg6.0 2.2.4 ii libc6 2.31-13+deb11u5 ii libgcc-s1 10.2.1-6 ii libgnutls30 3.7.1-5+deb11u3 ii libseccomp2 2.5.1-1+deb11u1 ii libstdc++6 10.2.1-6 ii libsystemd0 247.3-7+deb11u1 Versions of packages apt recommends: ii ca-certificates 20210119 Versions of packages apt suggests: pn apt-doc <none> ii aptitude 0.8.13-3 ii dpkg-dev 1.20.12 ii gnupg 2.2.27-2+deb11u2 ii gnupg1 1.4.23-1.1 ii gnupg2 2.2.27-2+deb11u2 ii powermgmt-base 1.36 -- no debconf information
