package: debhelper
severity: minor

Hi,

many packages make use use of /usr/share/bug/*/script files. These files are most often added to the packaging via the Debian .diff.gz file and are installed into the binary packages via debian/*.install files. This way there is no other way to keep the files executable than to manually chmod them in debian/rules. If you miss this, lintian throws the script-not-executable warning.

I suggest extending dh_fixperms to automatically fix the permissions for these files if the are installed into a package.

Thanks,
Fabian
