Package: ssh
Version: 1:3.6.1p2-1
Severity: normal

I thought I filed a bug on this before, but cannot find it.
/etc/default/ssh should be mode 644, not 755.

You did (#185537), and it is, in the .deb:

-rw-r--r-- root/root       122 2003-05-05 17:53:17 ./etc/default/ssh

Does dpkg perhaps not resolve permissions properly on conffiles or
something?

I suspect maybe it treats them the same as directories, although this is
the first time I've run into it.

clone 192966 -1
reassign -1 dpkg
retitle -1 dpkg: doesn't resolve permissions on conffiles?
thanks

Cloning this bug off to dpkg, then. I'll hack around it in ssh's
postinst.

Thanks,

Description: 
 ssh        - Secure rlogin/rsh/rcp replacement (OpenSSH)
 ssh-askpass-gnome - under X, asks user for a passphrase for ssh-add
Closes: 183986 192429 192966
Changes: 
 openssh (1:3.6.1p2-2) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Force /etc/default/ssh to be non-executable, since dpkg apparently
     doesn't deal with permissions changes on conffiles (closes: #192966).
   * Use debconf 0.5's seen flag rather than the deprecated isdefault.
   * Add GPL location to copyright file.
   * Remove debian/postinst.old.
   * Switch to po-debconf, with some careful manual use of po2debconf to
     ensure that the source package continues to build smoothly on woody
     (closes: #183986).
   * Update debconf template translations:
     - Brazilian Portugese (thanks, Andre Luis Lopes; see #183986).
     - Japanese (thanks, Tomohiro KUBOTA; closes: #192429).
   * Compile with -fno-builtin-log for now, otherwise gcc-3.3 complains
     "log.h:59: warning: conflicting types for built-in function `log'". The
     OpenSSH log() function has been renamed in upstream CVS.
