Somebody has to fix them to get CVS Mozilla Firebird to work for user accounts. Either these lines need to be added to src_install (this was tested and does work): # fix broken permissions chmod -R +r ${D}/usr/lib/MozillaFirebird chmod -R +x ${D}/usr/lib/MozillaFirebird/defaults chmod +x ${D}/usr/lib/MozillaFirebird/run-mozilla.sh or maybe the cp line should be changed to (this wasn't tested): # preserve permissions cp -RL -p --no-preserve=links ${S}/dist/bin/* ${D}/usr/lib/MozillaFirebird
This bug was actually caused by CVS (either program or server), but better safe than sorry...
firebird-cvs no longer in the tree
