When you untar the distribution, the permissions may be modified on your /lib & /lib/Products directories - a side-effect of using tar as the installation mechanism. Something to be dococumented in the product developer guides that people are trying to get organized in another thread...
It isn't very hard to make a tarball which doesn't do this, by the way. For a simple example, see http://www.zope.org/Members/4am/packProduct Of course, if you have to deal with an existing flawed tarball, you can always untar it in a temporary location which doesn't have a 'lib' directory, then move the product's directory to the correct location and delete the empty 'lib/python/Products' from the temporary location.
