Re: New 7.8 release candidate: 7.8.696

Makes sense. I realized that the umask problem on pelix (is it still called pelix?) is because I created the directories and uploaded them using sftp. Getting sftp to honor my umask is probably a losing battle (and I've fixed permissions for other directories created by different folks there, as well). I guess the solution is simply to log in directly and fix them up afterward.

Or perhaps a cron job to keep the ftp site fixed up, in general.

There's a script bin/tarfilter.pike which cleans up the persmissions of the generated tarfiles, so that's taken care of. :-)
