RE: RE: Can't reopen file created with ver 0.9.1 onR edHat 8.0 - fix!

Thanks Frank,

That sounds correct. 

I was just wondering if there was any other things to check.  I like the
tool and don't want to miss out on a new feature just because I didn't fix
the permissions somewhere.

Hi Richard, Alan,

It depends on your umask settings.  If you run the 0.9.1. RedHat rpm with
'umask 007' then it won't set read permissions for 'others' for these
directories.  Setting the umask to say '002' before running the rpm solves
this, but I guess the rpm should set the directory permissions
appropriately.

I mentioned this in an email back on 3 April, which Mikael Hallendal picked
up on, so I guess this'll be rectified in the next release.  (Which I just
can't wait for :)

Cheers,

Frank
