Bug Description
base-files does not use dh_fixperms which means that files added to it are subject to changes in umask. Spefically:
$ ar x /tmp/base-
$ tar -ztvf ./data.tar.gz |grep '^.....w'
...
-rw-rw-r-- root/root 82 2011-07-08 12:13 ./etc/dpkg/
-rw-rw-r-- root/root 114 2011-07-08 12:13 ./etc/dpkg/
...
/etc/dpkg/origins/* should use appropriate arguments to 'install' in debian/rules.
