[Adduser-devel] Bug#398793: adduser: Non system wide readable (home) directories should not be 751

[Olaf van der Spek]

Package: adduser
Version: 3.99
Severity: normal

Hi,

Non system wide readable (home) directories should be 750, not 751.
Or, the question should be made more clear, for example by replacing readable by listable.
