[issue14299] OS X installer build script: permissions not ensured

[Nicholas Riley]

Nicholas Riley added the comment:

I don't have time to check it, but it's easy enough to test - set your umask to 077 and try building an installer, see if the files get the correct permissions when installed.

I would hope tutorials would tell users to install the packages somewhere else, but you're probably right - sudo is the path of least resistance and is even less secure.
