Anyway, I'm glad you solved your problem

I think it is because in my .profile umask 066 which has been set like that since 1994 From my understanding sudo uses the users umask for creating files and directories.

@rev.cressy I installed sudo in one of my machines, configured it, then did a fresh installation of debtap (/var/cache/debtap didn't exist before), updated debtap database running "sudo debtap -u" as a normal user, then I converted a .deb package using debtap again as a normal user. Everything went fine, plus permissions are 755 for /var/cache/debtap and 644 for its contents. So, I can't reproduce your problem and I don't know what happened in your case.

After I did the following everything worked fine. cd /var/cache sudo chmod 755 debtap/ sudo chmod 644 debtap/*

You mean now a normal user cannot use it?

debtap needs to be used as a root user for updating the cache in /var/cache As a new user to Arch Linux new files created by root have modes of 711 for directories and 600 for files using sudo. Thus I end up with: drwx--x--x 2 root root 4.0K Nov 2 07:46 debtap -rw------- 1 root root 432K Nov 2 07:46 aur-packages -rw------- 1 root root 424M Nov 2 07:43 debian-packages-files -rw------- 1 root root 464M Nov 2 07:46 ubuntu-packages-files It might be wise to verify the mode and if the /var/cache/debtap directory does not have a mode of 755 then enter a chmod command chmod 755 /var/cache/deptab and chmod 644 /var/cache/debtap/* which would make it possible to use debtap as a normal user.

Read my comment bellow about Manjaro, synchronization works perfectly here, I just tested it!

When you run the command "sudo -u deb tap" generates an error in the search of the repositories, imposibilitando the subsequent implementation of the debstap. In Manjaro I get an error.
