Summary0000388: Inconsistent permissions on library jar files
DescriptionThe Java archives for the standard libraries are installed in such a way that they only user readable and writeable. Aside from not being very useful in multi-user environments, this is also inconsistent with the permissions on the library files in other grades (which are group readable and writeable and world readable.)

Hello Julien. I have the same problem on Fedora as well. This is a problem introduced by Java 7+, where temporary files get only 0600 permissions.
This happens when the Mercury compiler invokes the Java index option, which is currently used in a wrong fashion any way, since the jar index only works for multiple referenced jar files, but Mercury only references the jar file itself, which is not needed.
I've added a patch to make that point clearer.
