Package: libconfig-inifiles-perl
Version: 2.52-1+squeeze1
Severity: normal


Files created when using the WriteConfig method fail to be created
with proper permissions in regard to umask.

The umask specified in /etc/login.defs is 022, which should result
in new files with permissions of 644. Instead, new files have
a permissions 600.

If reverted to version 2.52-1 from 2.52-1+squeeze one, files are
created with the proper permissions specified by umask.
