Maybe I don't understand the question. These are not scripts, but
module files that are used by zim. The 0644 permission seems correct
to me for module files. Only /usr/bin/zim needs to be executable.

Need to double check, but I think this file is packaged by mistake. I
think you can safely remove it.
