[GRASS-dev] grass64 not executable

Hi

On SVN r31254 (GRASS 6.4) I noticed that the grass64 startup script is not set executable at installation on my machine. Is anybody else having the problem?

No - it looks like a local problem at your end.
See the Makefile (excerpt):

START_UP=grass$(GRASS_VERSION_MAJOR)$(GRASS_VERSION_MINOR)
...
$(ARCH_BINDIR)/$(START_UP): init.sh grass.src
        @test -d $(ARCH_BINDIR) || (echo
'ARCH_DISTDIR($(ARCH_BINDIR))' not found; exit 1)
        @test -w $(ARCH_BINDIR) || (echo '($(ARCH_BINDIR))' not
writeable; exit 1)
        rm -f $(ARCH_BINDIR)/$(START_UP) ; true
        $(SHELL) -c "sed \
        -e \"s#GISBASE_VALUE#$(GISBASE)#\" \
        grass.src > $(ARCH_BINDIR)/$(START_UP) 2>/dev/null ; true"
        chmod a+x $(ARCH_BINDIR)/$(START_UP)

chmod is there in path?
File permissions are right?

It is the checkinstall which resets the executable bit. I should have checked it first. Sorry for the noise.
