/usr/local installs with the wrong permissions

[matt@…]

strange bug.

I've seen it on the last 4 LFS builds I've done (I'll check in more detail when I rebuild my laptop and now I know what I'm looking for.)

_something_ that is looking like a umask issue or install command bug is messing up the permissions on my /usr/local directory

To offer an example

root@alesi:/usr/local# ls -la total 52 drwxr-sr-x 12 root root 4096 2005-04-22 06:12 . drwxr-xr-x 10 root root 4096 2005-04-21 03:59 .. drwxr-sr-x 12 root root 4096 2005-04-22 06:12 apache drwxr-sr-x 2 root root 4096 2005-04-22 06:52 bin lrwxr-xr-x 1 root root 9 2005-04-18 23:38 doc -> share/doc drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2005-04-22 06:23 etc drwxr-xr-x 10 root root 4096 2005-04-22 06:23 include lrwxr-xr-x 1 root root 10 2005-04-18 23:38 info -> share/info drwxrwxr-x 9 root root 4096 2005-04-10 17:28 j2sdk1.4.2_07 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 2005-04-21 06:32 java -> j2sdk1.4.2_07/ drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 2005-04-22 06:23 lib lrwxr-xr-x 1 root root 9 2005-04-18 23:38 man -> share/man drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2005-04-22 00:03 sbin drwxr-xr-x 9 root root 4096 2005-04-18 23:38 share drwxrwxrwx 85 root root 8192 2005-04-22 06:51 src drwxr-xr-x 9 root root 4096 2005-04-20 03:58 ssl

apache was only recently installed (last hour or so) and ssl was installed a day earlier, so it does either appear to be a problem with the /usr/local/ directory

and depending on how the products are installed inheriting the bad permissions,

or a problem with "install" setting the wrong permissions

this is on all my LFS 6 builds (I am not following blfs in detail)

I have manually corrected this, but it would be interesting to see if others have had this problem.

I want to close this as "INVALID" as it appears to be related to BLFS packages.

Matt, would you mind bringing this up on blfs-support, to see if anyone else

has seen it?

/usr/local has the permissions we set which is 755, so I don't think this is related to an LFS build. I have looked at the apache builds in BLFS, it uses the patch that I submitted a while back with some modifications, but doesn't not install apache in /usr/local. Closing as invalid.
