Description Carl Roth 2008-10-04 03:03:48 UTC 
Description of problem:

The --addsign mode for rpm doesn't honor the user's umask setting.  From what I can tell, it resets the file mode of the signed RPM to 0600 in all cases.

This is a new behavior with rpm-4.5 (Fedora 10 Beta).  The behavior doesn't occur in rpm-4.4.2 (Fedora 9).  The gnupg versions in F9 and F10-Beta are identical so for now I'm filing this bug against rpm.

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

rpm-4.5.90
gnupg-1.4.9

How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. build an rpm with 'rpmbuild -bb'
2. Set the RPM file mode with 'chmod 0644'
3. sign the rpm with 'rpm --addsign'
4. observe the new file mode
  
Actual results:


Expected results:

Signing an RPM should change its file mode.

Ah, another side-effect of using mkstemp(). Fill fix...

..and done upstream. Rawhide will get it on next tarball update (should be within a week or so)
Comment 3 Panu Matilainen 2008-10-16 17:06:42 UTC 
In rawhide now.
