Fixed in the latest versions I beleive. And file transfer via SMB for
example, wont always maintain permissions. Putting the files on a non
HFS+ drive at some point (transfer by FAT32 thumb drive, or
downloading on a Windows machine perhaps). I can't remember if you
have mentioned this, but how do you distribute your application. If
you have it in a dmg you should be fine. Stuffing the application will
work in most situations. Sending the actual application is more
dangerous though.
The last thing I want to tell users is to drop into terminal and
type in a giant chmod :)
Can Disk Utility repair this?
I think there needs to be a download receipt for DU to know what
permissions are correct. This is generally not the case for normal
downloads (only those downloaded with Software Update).
Right -- Disk Utility won't repair it. The lesson to be learned here
is to make a dmg BEFORE you compress anything. And, a hard lesson
learned, let me tell you :)
This brings up another question -- OS X's built in zip compression --
is there a way to change the compression level? What *is* the
compression level for the built in zip?
