Description Gunther Schlegel 2006-10-05 13:03:54 UTC 
Description of problem: when creating an archive with zip, zip does not honor
the umask. This behaviour is different from RHEL 3.8


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
zip-2.3-27

How reproducible:
Create a new archive, check access permissions.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. zip test /some/file
2. ls -l test.zip
3. -> The writing right for the group is missing.
  
Actual results:
RHEL 4:
[admin@leibniz tmp]$ umask
0007
[admin@leibniz tmp]$ zip test /etc/services
  adding: etc/services (deflated 65%)
[admin@leibniz tmp]$ ls -l test.zip 
-rw-r-----  1 admin admin 7163 Oct  5 15:01 test.zip


Expected results:
RHEL 3:
[admin@hilbert tmp]$ umask
0007
[admin@hilbert tmp]$ zip test /etc/services 
  adding: etc/services (deflated 65%)
[admin@hilbert tmp]$ ls -l test.zip 
-rw-rw----    1 admin    admin        7134 Oct  5 15:02 test.zip
