Hi Manfred,
After installation texlive permissions of all directories were 700.
Wouldn't it be a good idea to set umask to 022 (just for safety) before
installing anything?
It's doing what you told it to do. I don't think it's best not to guess
at the intended permissions. I seem to recall that in some prior years
we did set umask and there were complaints about that ...
Best,
Karl
