Why would conky have executale fonts??

#1 Post by locknb »

I was installing a custom font into my home .font directory and noticed a whole bunch of fonts with executable permissions.
I found the original files belonged to "conky". Any thoughts on why conky would be installed with the font file as executable.

Is this on purpose or a configuration mistake ??

Here is a listing of the "offending" font files:

Code: Select all

$ pwd
/usr/share/mx-conky-data/themes
$ find . -type f -executable -print0 | xargs -0  ls -al 
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root    783 Dec  9 21:17 ./MX-Asq/MX-GeekyTowerLogo/conky-harddisks.sh

confirmed.
You discovered a bug/mistake.
git clone https://github.com/MX-Linux/mx-conky-data
Some of those destined-for-packaging files bear incorrect permissions.

it doesn't matter much, as they aren't executable despite having the executable bit. but you're right, they don't look right.
