in reply to Re^2: cpan build environment ( uid 1000 and gid 1000 umask chown setgid chgrp )
in thread cpan build environment

Thanks for the links. I assume then that ALL the tar files from CPAN are 1000:1000?

Um, why assume that?

From what I can tell, CPAN ignores completely uid/gid from tarballs, which means the files end up with the current users uid/gid
