Bug#1136983: libconfig-model-dpkg-perl: dh-exec install files must be executable

Source: libconfig-model-dpkg-perl
Version: 3.020
Severity: important

Using the lomiri-push-service packaging
Run cme fix dpkg --save
debian/lomiri-push-service.install is changed from mode 0644 to 0755
which will cause the build to fail since the file is using dh-exec and
it's required to be executable.

This doesn't happen if --save isn't used.

My guess is this could be fixed in lib/Config/Model/Backend/Dpkg.pm
similar to how debian/rules is handled. I recommend checking for
install files where the first line is
#!/usr/bin/dh-exec

Thank you,
Jeremy Bícha
