Description Egor Ushakov 2008-10-17 12:42:19 UTC 
The problem is that inside nbms we loose file permissions.
e.g. create a file with 755 permissions and put it inside nbm.
Unpack it and the file will have 644 permissions.

In C/C++ pack we use external scripts that have to have executable permission.
If updated from nbm it is lost. Now we have to update file permissions in runtime
(see issue 112719)

In zipfileset the have filemode attribute solving this problem,
see http://codesnakes.blogspot.com/2008/07/netbeans-rcp-shell-scripts-permissions.html.

Please implement support of file permissions in nbms.

Primarily needs to be implemented in AU, which is responsible for unpacking NBMs. If there is anything that needs to be
done in the harness to take advantage of such a feature it would be possible.

Long filed as it turns out.
