Control: tags -1 + patch The origin of the bug is in line 411 of dbconfig-generate-include.
On upgrade, any new file is written to a temp file, which has default permissions (as in, those of the user running the script, normally root, and their umask). Attached is a patch that replicates the permissions of any old configuration to the tempfile so they do not get lost.
