Created attachment 180554 [details] git(1) produced diff to set permissions on /tmp after install of -runtime Hi, In deploying pkgbase on a lot of the machines I manage, I find that installing the runtime pkg resets permissions on my /tmp and removes the sticky bit. This is pretty unfriendly, unfortunately, for programs not run as root that create temp files. This is reproducible just by installing the -runtime pkg on a machine with /tmp at 1777 like in a standard install. On one hand, pkg(8) probably shouldn't be overwriting permissions on a directory that it didn't create. On the other hand, if /tmp doesn't exist (say, installing into a new jail environment or something to that effect) then the runtime pkg should probably be setting sensible permissions since it's not a directory that had previously existed. I'm attaching a patch to set sensible permissions (1777) on /tmp in accordance with bsdconfig behavior to address the latter part of my previous paragraph, which would alleviate this problem.
