Please fix the file permissions in the brave-keyring Debian package
See original GitHub issueWhen I installed brave-browser
from the https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com/
APT repository on my Debian system, it pulled the brave-keyring
package as a dependency. There’s control.tar.gz
and data.tar.xz
archives in this package (as usual), and all files in the archives are owned by bkero/bkero
. This has some implications when installing this kind of a package. Basically apt
/aptitude
/apt-get
call dpkg-deb
, which (because of the wrong file permissions) wants couple of additional capabilities (chown
, fowner
, fsetid
). To avoid this, all the files in the .deb
package have to be owned by root/root. Please fix this, thanks.
