pkg-config data is installed with the x-Flag

[Sven Herzberg]

All files in /usr/lib/pkgconfig are rw-r--r--, except autoopts.pc.

Is this still a problem with Ubuntu Hardy or Intrepid, the current development version?

[Sven Herzberg (herzi)]

Dear Triagers,

is it really that hard to install autogen on your machine, check if the bug is still valid and close or confirm it for that version?

Please tell me why on the one hand you usually ask for explicit reproduction details on most of the bug reports and why on the other, you don't care about it. I'm really sick of being asked "please check with <latest-and-not-so-greatest-version> or I'll close this" on all my valid bug reports.

PS: This seems to have been fixed.

[Colin Watson (cjwatson)]

As you note, this has indeed been fixed. There's no record of it in the changelog, but it appears to have been fixed by the Debian maintainer (or upstream?) sometime between 5.8.8-1 and 5.9.1-2.

I agree with your gripe about bug triage practices, and often point the same thing out myself. Please continue to point this sort of thing out, as it often leads to perfectly valid and interesting bugs being closed by overenthusiastic triagers.

[Colin Watson (cjwatson)]

Incidentally, 5.8.8-1 was in Ubuntu 7.04, and 5.9.1-2 was in Ubuntu 7.10.
