Package: apt Version: 2.1.6 Severity: minor I noticed, due to the way I have apt setup, that it complains about chmoding some files. I was looking in the source for a way to bypass this message and noticed that 0700 is hard coded in the warning.
In apt-pkg/acquire.cc:SetupAPTPartialDirectory() on lines 112 and 119 is where I noticed the message. The chown in the if statement shows it using a variable named mode. The warning message should reflect the mode it was trying to set.
