I just used rpm2tgz on the ymessenger rpm from yahoo as a normal user.  The resulting tgz package which I installed as root changed the permissions of my / /usr /usr/bin filesystems.  If anyone uses this program be careful.  I only found out because sendmail refused to work because alias file was unsafe.
