Hi guys,I was curious of why the ltib/ installation directory is world writable. My investigation shows that line 61 in the bin/ltib_install script
actually sets the umask to 0. Why is that? In a Unix system you normally need very good reasons for having world writeable directories. Umask of 0022 or even 0002 is most common. - Svein
