[Bug 1324685] Re: gem file access problem

[Hadmut Danisch]

I've found what causes the problem.

/usr/bin/bundle doesn't set the umask, and instead uses the umask set by
the user who calls it.

In my case, my umask is 027.

Therefore, all files created by bundle (through sudo) in /var/lib/gems
become unreadable for users other than root, and therefore bundle will
work for root only, unless a  chmod -R a+rX /var/lib/gems  is performed.

Problem doesn't occur if I use a umask of 022 .

So bundle needs to set it's umask properly, i.e. something like 022.
