Bug Description

Binary package hint: bzr-builddeb

When building packages with bzr bd, the resulting .debs are output in the parent directory with permissions that don't match my shell's umask. This is inconvenient when my build directory happens to be on an NFS share, because I have to chmod the files before I can install the packages as root
