Item9928: Gauge plugin changes the umask to hardcoded 002 - which can break other extensions.

Priority: CurrentState: AppliesTo: Component: WaitingFor:
Urgent Closed Extension GaugePlugin  
GaugePlugin should set the umask to 777 - {RCS}{dirPermissions}

GaugePlugin.pm sets umask to 002. This will cause directories created by other extensions to potentially have broader permissions than intended by the configure settings.

Suggested code: umask( oct(777) - $Foswiki::cfg{RCS}{dirPermission} );

Thanks. Now fixed.
