Subject: [PATCH 0/1] Introduce new build variables INSTALL_MODE_EXECUTABLE and INSTALL_MODE_DATA.
Date: Thu, 31 Jan 2013 02:08:29 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5109D21D.8010701@iam.tj> (raw)
During a build/install cycle of the current HEAD whilst attempting to identify the cause of a bug in
git version 1.8.0.3 whilst doing:
GIT_CURL_VERBOSE=1 git clone -v https://git01.codeplex.com/typescript
* GnuTLS recv error (-9): A TLS packet with unexpected length was received.
* Closing connection #0
error: RPC failed; result=56, HTTP code = 200
I hit a local install failure whilst installing to the prefix /usr/local/ where the $(INSTALL)
command reported a Permission Denied error.
This was due to the $(INSTALL) modes being 755/644 but the file-system modes being 775/664.
In this case ownership and permissions are:
$ ls -ald /usr/local
drwxrwxr-x 13 root adm 4096 Sep 26 04:16 /usr/local
Users belonging to the 'adm' group have permission to install local packages.
The fix I've implemented is to convert the hard-coded 755/644 modes to variables which can
be over-ridden on the make command-line if necessary.
