Bug Description
Hi, I'm following the instructions to install nginx and passenger on my ubuntu/unity 13.10 x86_64 machine as indicated on phusion site.
Then I need to create a file passenger.list into /etc/apt/
The file I create on nautilus is showed as text file!
After in the instructions, I need to do the commands
$ sudo chown root: /etc/apt/
$ sudo chmod 600 /etc/apt/
and after the last command on nautilus, I see that the file is a binary file!
this kind of file 'binary' cause an error when i need to use the apt as
WARNING:root:could not open file '/etc/apt/
chmod doesn't change the file type, right?
G.
