I notice that the installation of Asterisk 1.8.8 thru 1.8.10 (probably earlier versions too) remove the group write permissions from /etc/asterisk/. which is different than 1.4. And 1.6.

Is this expected behavior?
If so, what's the rationale?
If not, I'll submit a bug report if someone hasn't beaten me to it.

The difference comes from using `install` rather than `mkdir`. mkdir defaults to a+rwx (777) - umask (likely 002 on your system), whereas install defaults to the much more sane u+rwx,g+rx,o+rx (755).

I don't know if I would call it a bug since the switch to install was intentional, but I wouldn't say it's necessarily expected either. I don't really have a strong opinion either way though. If anything, I might be inclined to argue that 750 (or 770) would be more appropriate.
