[Pkg-mc-devel] Bug#529756: mcedit sets incorrect mode (644) for new files, can`t use umask value

[Pavel V. Rochnyack]

Package: mc
Version: 2:4.6.2-2.1
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

We are trying to use umask 002, but result privileges for new files are 644.
We offer a simple patch to fix this problem. Probably it is necessary to add S_IWOTH to be even more correct.
