    Hi,
    
    It may be related to HFS+ but as far as I can say all HFS+ install won't
    demonstrate such a problem. More than just a permission weirdness, the real
    point is that file permission seems really inconsistent in MacOSX.
    
    Several users already reported being unable to write in /Applications/ even
    with admin account.
    Sounds like pax installer used to design .pkg has something to do with this
    behavior.
