Well, that's odd. I'd think one of those would do the trick. But:

It's a buglet in the populate_packages process: permissions of 
non-empty directories are not preserved. You can work around it in your 
recipe with the hack I posted to the thread yesterday. It's how I create 
my ssh key package for deb (not tested with ipk).
