This is an error in the initial packaging. Since OS X PackageMaker uses tar (basically) for its archive all the user ids and permissions are left over from whomever did the packaging. When I did this sort of thing I usually ran a post build script that set all the permissions, user and group ids to what was expected, THEN ran packagemaker on the result directory tree.

This is all fixed in CVS. The problems are in CPack. It requires too much code moving to get all the fixes into 2.4.8. I am thinking I will just yank the ability to move the install for 2.4.8. We have gotten along without it this far, and the current fix seems to be worst than what we had before.

Unfortunately I agree with you. I would rather have it be _correctly_ installed in /usr than all messed up everywhere. Lets get it correct for 2.6.
