permissions not retained?
I have a dynamic file link in place which the checkbox set to 'retain exisiting permissions'. I build the multiplatform installer on my windows machine. however when I install on Linux, the file permissions were not retained. Is this a bug or has someone else encountered this? It looks like it it resetting everything to 555.

I had some issues with a Linux install not retaining the permissions I was giving it. I ended up running a script at the end of the install that set the permissions to what I wanted them to be.
