<p>There seems to be a weird regression in rpm 4.13.</p>
<p>If a package contains</p>
<pre><code>%files
%defattr*644,root,root,755)
%doc README
</code></pre>
<p>then the file README is copied to %{_defaultdocdir}/%{name} as expected, but said directory is assigned permission 644 (instead of 755). This used to work correct with rpm 4.12</p>
<p>rpm 4.12:</p>
<pre><code>rpm -qlvp test-0-0.x86_64.rpm
drwxr-xr-x    2 root    root                        0 Feb 20 23:13 /usr/share/doc/packages/test
-rw-r--r--    1 root    root                       11 Feb 20 23:13 /usr/share/doc/packages/test/dummy
</code></pre>
<p>rpm 4.13:</p>
<pre><code>rpm -qlvp test-0-0.x86_64.rpm 
drw-r--r--    2 root    root                        0 Feb 20 23:19 /usr/share/doc/packages/test
-rw-r--r--    1 root    root                       11 Feb 20 23:19 /usr/share/doc/packages/test/dummy
</code></pre>
