Comment (by Chris Johns):

 Why is the packaging being built installing read-only files? Is this an
 upstream bug?

 Consider:
 {{{
 $ mkdir /tmp/xya
 $ mkdir /tmp/xya/abz
 $ touch /tmp/xya/abz/129
 $ ls -las /tmp/xya/abz/129
 0 -rw-r--r--  1 chris  wheel  0 Jun 14 16:30 /tmp/xya/abz/129
 $ chmod 444 /tmp/xya/abz/129
 $ ls -las /tmp/xya/abz/129
 0 -r--r--r--  1 chris  wheel  0 Jun 14 16:30 /tmp/xya/abz/129
 $ rm -r /tmp/xya
 override r--r--r--  chris/wheel for /tmp/xya/abz/129?
 }}}

 Removing read-only files is not "expected" behaviour.
 I suppose with the RSB and a package and package we could so this.

 Note, the `path.py` code from the 4.11 patch I just posted needs to be
 ported to `master`. It has a better `removeall`. I plan to do this once
 merged on to the 4.11 branch.
