Unfortunatly I moved the checksum file to a tmp dir earlier in order to
check out my source, so here's the permissions for a checksum in a
project I just created (my system locale is ga_IE or Irish Gaelic so
excuse the translated words)

address@hidden tmp $ ls -l
/home/balor/\{archive\}/test/test--mainline/test--mainline--0.1/base-0/

I think I've only ever run official releases, but I could have done
something stupid like this.

This is one of the reasons I like tla :)
