Re: In Stretch, Gnome ignores umask setting in ~/.profile

[gwmfms6@openmailbox.org]

Is the issue I'm experiencing related to this systemd bug? I didn't 
understand a lot of what was said: 
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/6077

This is a real problem for me. Is everyone who's using Stretch just 
creating documents that are readable by everyone? I guess this isn't as 
big an issue if only one person uses the computer. But it still 
represents a security/privacy issue and becomes use-prohibitive with 
multiple users.

I'm surprised there isn't a way to set umask in gnome on debian.
