Description:

Packages uploaded to the AUR must have directory permissions 755 and file permissions 644. mkaurball does not ensure that these permissions are set and instead assumes a umask of 0022. This can require that package maintainers manually change their umask when updating AUR packages.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Get a PKGBUILD
2. $ umask 0002
3. $ mkaurball
4. $ tar -tvf package.src.tar.gz
5. The package directory will have the incorrect permissions 775
