Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package ships or creates
world writable files.

>From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):

Given that this is a downloader package which has not changed since
last year, but the downloaded data seems to be different nowadays,
the package obviously does not check whether the downloaded files
match its expectations (e.g. by comparing hashes), which is yet
another RC bug.


cheers,

Andreas
