Hello. There are some ports that insist on changing permissions on some directories. An example is clamav, which will always change /var/db/clamav mask to 755. Since I always need to "chmod 775 /var/db/clamav" after an upgrade, I'm asking: _ where does this come from? I tried to look into Makefile, but didn't get to it; _ is this something FreeBSD specific or coming from upstream? _ what's the rationale behind this? _ can this be avoided or tweaked? bye & Thanks av. P.S. Another example would be squid.
