Re: setup 2.78.2.13


BTW, reinstalling those packages using setup 2.98 fixes the permission 
problems, on all files except /etc/setup/installed.db.old (which makes 
sense because that is merely a 'mv'ed installed.db so it retains the bad 
permissions.  One more re-run of setup-2.98 and that'll go away, too)
