Hi, I just noticed the source tgz package of Iup 3.9 has problematic default permissions: the executable (x) bit seems to be missing on all the directories. Just a small nuisance, but this might confuse some users as the package will not build without fixing the permissions by hand. Ico -- :wq ^X^Cy^K^X^C^C^C^C |

Is there a way to ignore permissions when creating the tgz? So it is packed with no permissions? Because I create it on Windows using tar from Cygwin and a script, and my file system is NTFS. When copying files or creating tars, sometimes the permissions are all wrong.

Hm, thats a though one, I'm not aware of any such options. Unfortunately I have no windows machine at hand here to check this. Are you using any environment like mingw or cygwin? > Because I create it on Windows using tar from Cygwin and a script, and my > file system is NTFS.

Ah, that explains, Unix and Windows file systems are different beasts, often causing this kind of trouble. -- :wq ^X^Cy^K^X^C^C^C^C |

Perhaps you want to try using the tar from Mingw. Cygwin does strange things with mode bits unless the files are only ever written by Cygwin. Mingw tries to normalize all files to 0644 and directories to 0755. -- tom <tel...@wh...> |

Thanks Tom, I'll try this next time.
