The UDF ECMA specification at The ECMA spec at http://www.ecma- international.org/publications/standards/Ecma-167.htm defines an execute bit which if set means that the user "may execute the file".

Executable directories seem undefined, nonsensical under the spec. It seems to me that permission 444 directories are legitimate and should be readable under the spec. -- DVDs with restrictive permissions are unreadable for normal user https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/10550 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
