20496	permissions are set to root during install phase despite destroot permissions	jameskyle@…	macports-tickets@lists.macosforge.org	"This behavior only appears in 1.8, it works as expected in 1.7.1.
It appears the install phase is changing file and directory ownership from that specified and assigned in the destroot.

For example:

{{{
sudo port destroot backuppc
ls -ld work/destroot/${destroot}${prefix}/var/backups
drwxrwx---  7 backuppc  backuppc  272 Jul 30 17:08 work/destroot/${destroot}${prefix}/var/backups

And after install:

ls -ld ${prefix}/var/backups
drwxrwx---  7 root  backuppc  272 Jul 30 17:09 ${prefix}/var/backups }}}
