doc.tbz2 tarball content in 4.1.0 has wrong permission

[François Bissey]

Hi,

I am just packaging 4.1.0 for Gentoo and it is very nice
not have the separate "share" tarball anymore.
However the current install process for the content of that tarball:
-cat ${top_srcdir}/doc/doc.tbz2| (cd
$(DESTDIR)$(datadir)/singular; tar jxf -)
-mkdir $(DESTDIR)$(datadir)/info
-mv $(DESTDIR)$(datadir)/singular/singular.hlp
$(DESTDIR)$(datadir)/info/.

means that the permission of the tarred content is preserved.
And currently it is 640 for files 651 for the html folder
itself. Concretely that means that when singular is installed
by root, normal users cannot read singular.hlp or the html
pages.

Good permissions would be 644 (rw-r--r--) and 655 (rwxr-xr-x).

You mean 644 and 755.
