The port uses tar to copy files: cd ${WRKSRC}/tools ; \ tar --exclude '*.in' -cf - * | tar -C ${PREFIX}/share/subversion -xf - This way installed files preserve permissions from the ones in archive, the problem with archive is that files only have permissions for owner and the group, nobody else can access them. Fix: There are many ways to fix it, but I don't know which one is best: find /usr/local/share/subversion -type d | xargs chmod o+rx find /usr/local/share/subversion -type f -perm -100 | xargs chmod o+x find /usr/local/share/subversion -type f -perm -400 | xargs chmod o+r This is probably good to fix permissions once the port is installed, I guess the best would be to use loop and do $(INSTALL) for every file. How-To-Repeat: Just install the port and check for permissions in /usr/local/share/subversion
