Description

Part of the federal security baseline is to set umask 0077 system-wide. Unfortunately, that means when you follow the TracInstall wiki, all of the python eggs are setup with permissions that are too restrictive for Trac to function with Apache; e.g. Trac*.egg has permissions 600 and it needs to be 644.

TracInstall wiki page needs a section regarding restrictive umasks; the easiest solution is to suggest setting your umask to 0002 at the start of the install process.
