New description:

 As pointed out here: #11660 and here: #11664 archives have to be world-
 readable. sage-pkg does not enforce this.

 The following patch adds options to {{{sage -pkg}}} which allow to force
 anonymous or world-readable file settings (or both).

 '''Apply''' [attachment:sage-pkg-tarmode.2.patch]

Comment(by jdemeyer):

 My personal opinion on this is still that we don't need any of these
 options, I don't think `sage -spkg` should mess with permissions or user
 names.
