[Pkg-bazaar-maint] Bug#470494: bzr-builddeb: Permissions of unpacked files don't respect umask

Package: bzr-builddeb
Version: 0.92
Severity: normal

Hi,

  When unpacking a tarball with normal tar the permissions of the tarballs
  contents are filtered through the set umask. So for example directories in
  the tarball with permission 777 become 755 when your umask is the standard
  022. When bzr-builddeb unpacks upstream tarballs this isn't the case though.

  This is a bit annoying as the make dist process of autoconf sets directories
  in the tarball to 0777. Resulting in world writable directories when building
  a package :(
