Subject: Yggdrasil Linux (mis)configuration problem

I have noticed a serious problem with the Yggdrasil Linux cdrom.
The problems I have noticed are on the on the Fall94 release... I have
not had time to check newer releases... (Maybe someone else can
check??)
The following directories are installed on the new system with perms
of drwxrwxrwx:
   /usr/bin
   /usr/sbin
   /usr/lib
   /usr/man
   /usr/packages
   /usr/src
   (and others)

The problems are obvious...
