Bug#285767: initrd-tools: mkinitrd execute permission
Package: initrd-tools
Version: 0.1.74
Severity: normal
Right now the debian/rules file does a simple cp of mkinitrd program. If
mkinitrd happen to be non executable it will end up the same way in
..deb also. I guess we should use install program and specifiy the mode
and ownership when installing mkinitrd.
ie instead of
cp mkinitrd debian/initrd-tools/usr/sbin
install -o root -g root -m 755 mkinitrd debian/initrd-tools/usr/sbin
