Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mysql-server-5.1

I have a script and a data file that I have been using for years.
Today, after applying the 40 or so updates KPackageKit told me I needed,
and rebooting, it no longer works.

I assume someone has been playing with security again, and there is now 
something which needs to be tweaked somewhere on the system.  The file has 
world read enabled on it, so this is probably a setting which needs to be 
documented.
