4. Bugs (Important!) Be aware that on several versions of RPM, the tar file has been created using incorrect permissions. As soon as you install RPM, check your permissions of various directories (/bin, /usr, etc). If the permissions are of 700 (drwx------), then you have been infected by the bug. To fix these permissions problems, run this shell script: #!/bin/sh chmod 755 /bin chmod 755 /usr chmod 755 /usr/bin chmod 755 /usr/doc chmod 755 /usr/lib chmod 755 /usr/man chmod 755 /usr/man/man8 chmod 755 /usr/share chmod 755 /usr/share/locale chmod 755 /usr/share/locale/de chmod 755 /usr/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES chmod 755 /usr/share/locale/pt-br chmod 755 /usr/share/locale/pt-br/LC_MESSAGES chmod 755 /usr/share/locale/sv chmod 755 /usr/share/locale/sv/LC_MESSAGES chmod 755 /usr/src Feel free to E-Mail me if you have any questions about this.
