 bundles over as well to solve the permission problem seems to be a bit of
 over-engineering to me. What speaks against adjusting the permissions with
 the `dmg2mars` script (if we can't solve this problem with `7z`)?

 doing should be simple. I think we can do that.

 `*-signed.tar.bz2` files on the signing machine, we copy them over an
 other machine where we run a script to create the dmg files from the
 `*-signed.tar.bz2` files, and we then use `dmg2mar` to convert those dmg
 files to mar files. I was thinking that the creation of the dmg and the
 mar files could be done at the same time, but maybe that should be a
 separate ticket.

 Aha! Yes, this should be a separate ticket. The .bz2 thing is only a
 stopgap and is outside of the gitian machinery currently (and I hope we
 get to a point where we don't need it or a similar stopgap anymore but
 that is going to take a bit of time).
