Description
A build of the gnome-netstatus component of oi-userland stops with the error message:
cp: cannot open `.../wifi_info.c.~1~' for reading: Permission denied
Other components have the same problem: desktop/gnome2/gnome-power-manager x11/xorg-server runtime/openjdk-8 . It's caused by files created during the patching step with 000 permissions. It only happens when the component Makefile contains lines like:
COMPONENT_PRE_CONFIGURE_ACTION = (cp -r ...)
The solution is to make the files readable before copying them, like this:
COMPONENT_PRE_CONFIGURE_ACTION = ($(CHMOD) -R u+r $(SOURCE_DIR) && ...)
