Issue

• Consider a spec file containing

%install
install -m u=rwx,g=rx,o= -D bin/blah.jar ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}%{_libexecdir}/foo/blah.jar

• Then in the %files section, the permissions are not changed i.e. say, %defattr(-,bubba,users,-)), installing the rpm results in blah.jar having permissions 644 instead of 640.
• No matter what permissions are used in the install command, they're reset to the default 640.
• How can one fix that?
• Refer the spec below
• The test spec file is as follows.

[root@newrhel7 SPECS]# cat foo.spec
