Description Petr Pisar 2021-01-07 11:55:31 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1806523 +++

Description of problem:
Files in documentation folder have 'loose' permissions:
    In the file /usr/share/doc/perl-devel-5.16.3/perl-example.stp , the permission is 0664. 0755 is expected or more restrictive
[...]

This bug is caused by a 0002 umask on the build server. A simple fix is needed to the specification file:

 #copy the example script
-cp -a %{SOURCE5} .
+install -m 0644 %{SOURCE5} .

[...]

While the fix is not applied to RHEL-8 perl, the bug does not manifests there. Probably due to a different Brew code or a configuration.

------

It manifests in RHEL-8.4.0 scratch builds now.
