Just downloaded libguile6 and unared and untared it. Permissions in that version seems fine. And there is notihing in postinst that changes this. I found version 1.3-16.1 which versions are you using?
1.3-16.1how could that happen ? I have not yet studied how .debs work internally so is it the permissions stored in the embedded .tar file that are used? or is there a permission definition elsewhere (al la RPM .spec) ??
maybe we should add a script to cron that runs a scan for faulty permissions as well like suidregister scans for altered/new suids, mailing the results to root. I don't know how long this has been this way but its obviously not an isolated problem. checking for group writable files that shouldn't be would be a good idea too.
