Package: wu-ftpd
Version: 2.6.2-20
Severity: normal

When -DPARANOID was added to the configuration, SITE CHMOD and SITE UMASK
were killed. The only way this can be justified is if there is supposed to be
a single "correct" umask that results in the correct permissions on all files
uploaded by all users; or alternately that the users don't mind bouncing back
and forth between an FTP client for uploading and a login shell for chmod'ing.

Those are tough conditions to meet. Can we have SITE CHMOD back, please?
