Description Shuai WANG 2012-01-01 02:50:48 UTC 
The inotify_dir_watcher in /opt/SpiderOak is currently installed without exe permission, causing the software not able to monitor the dirs and the following line in the log files (~/.SpiderOak/spider_*.log)

ERROR    fs_notify            Error starting notifier: /opt/SpiderOak/inotify_dir_watcher: Permission denied

While I was at it I also made the py executable executable. No idea what it is used for, though... Patch attached.

Actually even this misses SpiderOak/library.zip.  I the bumped ebuild (see bug #398313), I'm suggesting we use

   cp -pPR usr/lib/SpiderOak "${ED}"/opt/

Not ideal but it preserves the permissions.  This should ease future maintenance if permissions are changed on other files --- the unfortunate downside of prebundled binaries and libraries.
Comment 3 Anthony Basile gentoo-dev 2012-01-26 17:41:08 UTC 
This is fixed in spideroak-bin-4.2.9913.ebuild and should be carried forward. 
See bug #398313
