[buildd-tools-devel] Bug#870451: sbuild-update-all is missing the executable bit

[Michael Stapelberg]

Package: sbuild
Version: 0.73.0-4
Severity: normal

The instructions in /usr/share/doc/sbuild/examples/sbuild-update-all recommend
to directly run the script from cron:

# 1. Update all sbuild chroots four times a day (at 00:15/06:15/12:15/18:15):
#
#     15 */6 * * * root /usr/share/doc/sbuild/examples/sbuild-update-all
#

However, when doing that, one gets an error message:

/bin/sh: 1: /usr/share/doc/sbuild/examples/sbuild-update-all: Permission denied

This is because the script is not marked executable:

% ls -l /usr/share/doc/sbuild/examples/sbuild-update-all
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3298 2017-01-24 10:58 /usr/share/doc/sbuild/examples/sbuild-update-all
