[rb-general] [Debian] just how do you set the umask that setting it back to 022 doesn’t work?

[Thorsten Glaser]

Hi,

I’m trying the list eMail address at Alioth listed on
https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/reproducible.html
and, assuming it won’t work, another. I hope I found the right list.

In variations testing, you’re setting umask to 002 in the second
build for Debian rebuilds. Just HOW do you do that that even dh(1)
changing its umask back to 022 at startup (before init() even!),
as requested in #944691, doesn’t work?

https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/unstable/arm64/diffoscope-results/musescore.html
was rebuilt with an umask-resetting debhelper, yet I still see a
difference in output having to do with umask applying to generated
files. I cannot figure out where this comes from nor a fix.

Assistance is welcome ☻

Thanks in advance,
