Hi IOhannes and all,

As usual, one answer brings up two questions!

First, can you explain how I could "remove the
executable bit in the installation stage"?

Second, when I working on a patch with quilt, I noticed
that two patches were already applied.

In the pkg-perl group (using subversion) the patches
had to be popped before commits, and before building.

Are there any requirements or conventions for the multimedia
team about the patch status (applied or unapplied) when
making commits or when building?

Thanks for any light on this!

Joel
