I don't have time to check it, but it's easy enough to test - set your umask to 
077 and try building an installer, see if the files get the correct permissions 
when installed.

I would hope tutorials would tell users to install the packages somewhere else, 
but you're probably right - sudo is the path of least resistance and is even 
less secure.
