Yes, I see also that permissions are not updated. Analysis is difficult because of the slow performance of 1.4.0 (other story that has been reported elsewhere).
I back up my photos using rsync into the tresor. In a lot of cases, the permissions of backup and original are not identical. So the next rsync run tries to update the permissions, but to no effect.
Using strace, I see many calls like this:
lstat(“foo/bar/DSCN1164.JPG”, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=2427813, …}) = 0
chmod(“foo/bar/DSCN1164.JPG”, 0666) = 0
The original has indeed permissions 0666, but the chmod call does not change that. Neither does a manual chmod in the shell.
