Tcl/E2fsprogs libraries are read only

Description

This is a small but annoying issue. The Tcl library is installed read only. So if you follow the instructions to strip the binaries, you'll get an error message when it tries to strip the Tcl library. Both chapters 5 and 6 are affected.

If it is determined that the library should be left read only, then a note in the stripping sections should be created saying there will be an error.

  • summary changed from Tcl library is read only to Tcl/E2fsprogs libraries are read only.

Noted that in Chapter 5 installation of E2fsprogs the static libraries are installed read-only as well. Same thing if you try to strip them. You'll get an error message. They should probably be set 644.
