Linux .deb format

[misson20000]

Ubuntu Software Center gives me this warning when I install dcpu-toolchain. To me, it looks like md5 sums aren't matching up

Lintian check results for /home/misson20000/.cache/.fr-rCtlf0/toolchain.deb:
E: dcputoolchain: control-file-has-bad-permissions md5sums 0600 != 0644

what?

[misson20000]

I think the installer is saying the md5 sums don't match up

Can you provide the error message/info message?

I did. I'll reformat it so that the info message is more noticable

Oh, sorry, I had been replying via email and you had updated the post after I received the original email.

Regardless, it looks like something got messed up in the generation of the .deb file. Not sure how that might have happened. If you give me a minute, i will tell the buildbot to re-generate the .deb

[Mause]

Can you please try this file?

http://bb.dcputoolcha.in/builds/linux/dists/dcputoolchain-linux--84e4e6c0be7b864123e5e632dba8dcc92db8b48f.tar.gz

I just had the buildbot re-compile the toolchain and re-generate that .deb

Still doesn't work. Exactly the same error as before.
I'll post a bit more of the error that I didn't deem necessary last time

try this one http://bb.dcputoolcha.in/builds/linux/dcputoolchain-linux--current.deb

[misson20000]

Still getting the same error, although the path is in /tmp now, not surprising to me, though. I extracted the previous debs out of the tar.gz file and this one is the direct deb. Same error, though

[misson20000]

I just tried gdebi and gdebi doesn't have a problem with the debs

[misson20000]

Well, actually all of them work, but give me warnings

[patflick]

we'll check it out @Mause ;)

@misson20000 would you be willing to try building the toolchain .deb's on your machine to try to fix this? I am unsure of where to go from here, or what the exact problem might be.

@hach-que may have some idea however.

[hach-que]

I can't assist much as I don't use a Debian-based system.

[Mause]

@misson20000 did you have any luck building on your own machine?
