rework the check on root:root perms for installing packages; still may need to add a new config file variable, such as 'CHECKPERMS' in order to turn this off since I know of a few folks that purposefully change the perms of their built packages and it might get annoying to have to always answer yes. With this config file variable, they can turn the perm checking off.
