This would be a "pseudo-patch": Replace this:
The "/usr/local" directory itself and all the subdirectories created by the package should (by default) have permissions 2775 (group- writable and set-group-id) and be owned by "root:staff". by this: The "/usr/local" directory itself and all the subdirectories created by the package should have permissions 755 and be owned by "root:root" if /etc/staff-group-for-usr-local does not exist, and they should have permissions 2775 (group-writable and set-group-id) and be owned by "root:staff" if /etc/staff-group-for-usr-local does exist. Thanks.
