Thank you for looking into and solving the default umask issue. In the meantime (at least from following ubuntu) it seams the pam_umask has long entered main and it gave us back /etc/login.defs as a central place to set the umask (without depending on umask settings in particular shell rc scripts or /etc/profile to set the umask).
Maybe with removing the umask line from /etc/profile entirely, and adding the line "session optional pam_umask.so usergroups" to /etc/pam.d/common-session (man pam_umask) the issue can be handled even better for next release? (Still existing /etc/profiles won't change, but we'll reestablish a central mechanism to change/customize the default umask, that works with all shells/logins/points of entry.) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
