Converting an RPM results in alien changing the permissions of the working
directory to 755.
It looks like unpack in Alien/Package/Rpm.pm is broken. It find's files in
relative to $workdir but changes permissions relative to the current working
dir.
Perhaps this is what's needed? This should properly fix #340588 too.
