[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] mode 2755 on dirs

[Thomas Hood]

Petter: I think that the directory perms are not set correctly on your build dir.

jdthood at turmeric:/tmp$ lintian initscripts_2.86.ds1-7_i386.deb
W: initscripts: non-standard-dir-perm etc/default/ 2755 != 0755
W: initscripts: non-standard-dir-perm etc/init.d/ 2755 != 0755
W: initscripts: non-standard-dir-perm usr/share/initscripts/lintian/ 2755 != 0755
W: initscripts: non-standard-dir-perm usr/share/initscripts/lintian/overrides/ 2755 != 0755
W: initscripts: non-standard-dir-perm lib/init/ 2755 != 0755

I don't get these errors when I build here.

Probably your build dir has group s perm.

Note that install -d causes the created dir to inherit the group s
perm from its parent, even if -m is given.  (This is currently a topic
of discussion among the coreutils developers.)
