Bug#421991: kcontrol: sets wrong permissions when installing new fonts system-wide
Package: kcontrol
Version: 4:3.5.6.dfsg.2-2
Severity: normal
When you install a font using konqueror and you choose the
"System" option as installation location, the fonts get installed
in the system directory, but are only readable by root, and ordinary
users can't use them this way.
Steps to reproduce:
- Navigate with konqueror in a directory that contains new font files
(I tried with Type1 .pfb file, but I suspect this problem occurrs
with TrueType too)
- Right-click on the font to install,
choose Actions->Install
- In the "Where to install" dialog, choose "System".
- In the Authorization Dialog, enter the root password
- Find the fonts installed in /usr/local/share/fonts,
but with mode 600. They shoud have mode 644, so ordinary
users can use them.
Thanks,
Florian
