If you don't know in advance what permissions the installed app is expecting on the files, then it's kind of hard to know what permissions you need to set. As with all installers, the permissions (and owner/group) depends on the location of the application. If the application is in /Applications, then something different from root:admin (775/664) is probably wrong. If the application is in ~/, then the owner and group are either (user_id:user_id or user_id:staff) depending on the OS version you're running. If you need to change the permissions on some folders that already exists, there is a flag to do so in Apple's package format (see the Info pane if you're running PackageMaker on 10.2, the Settings pane if you're using a 3rd party application).
