Hello everybody,

I get the following error when try to install TeXLive from SVN:

running package-specific postactions
Can't exec 
"/common/packages/store/texlive-devel/tlpkg/tlpostcode/cont-cache.sh"
: Permission denied at 
/common/packages/build/texlive/build/devel/Master/tlpkg/T
eXLive/TLUtils.pm line 2097.
/common/packages/build/texlive/build/devel/Master/install-tl: calling 
post actio
n script tlpkg/tlpostcode/cont-cache.sh did not succeed in 
/common/packages/buil
d/texlive/build/devel/Master, status -1 at 
/common/packages/build/texlive/build/
devel/Master/tlpkg/TeXLive/TLUtils.pm line 2101.
finished with package-specific postactions

Indeed: the script `Master/tlpkg/tlpostcode/cont-cache.sh` mentioned is 
not executable; but in `Master/tlpkg/TeXLive/TLUtils.pm`

we have in lines 2092-2093:

     # we got anything else, call it directly and hope it is excutable
     push @syscmd, "$texdir/$file";
