Well, not a false positive, because it is accurate.  Annoying, yes, if you want
to have executables.

There are a few reasons to want 0644 on these files:
1) you might not be the maintainer for this some time in the future and someone
else might wonder why you are shipping them +x even though rpmlint is complaining
2) there really is no reason to have them +x in this package since the %prep or
%build section does not run them directly.

> 2. This is the first time I read about a requirement on "initscripts" :-/ (*)

I asked in #fedora-devel to make sure and was told that initscripts can not be
implied to be installed on the system.


> Buildroot : I prefer this one.

OK with me then.
