Description Jesse Keating 2007-09-28 21:13:59 UTC
istanbul-0.2.2-4.fc8

Files are written out as 600 mode.  Should be 644, or just rely upon the
system's umask.

Confirmed in F8.  Jeff, this is what was preventing you from viewing my
beautiful video the other day :)

Convince upstream to do something sane about this (or do it in Fedora :) ).

Comment 2 Jef Spaleta 2008-02-26 22:07:05 UTC
Okay i think i see what is going on.
istanbul writes to a tempfile first, then moves the tempfile to the final
location that you choose in the filechooser dialog.  So the mode that's being
set totally makes sense for a tmp file in a common tmp directory..and that mode
persists across the mv to the final location that you choose.

So this is definitely an istanbul issue. I'll poke at it in fedora and see if I
can get upstream to patch it.

Comment 4 Bug Zapper 2009-06-09 22:53:30 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 9.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '9'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here: 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping

Comment 5 Bug Zapper 2009-07-14 18:02:54 UTC
Fedora 9 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-07-10. Fedora 9 is 
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further 
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of 
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
