The package is of bad quality

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Download .deb file
2. Open with software center (I have tested in Ubuntu 12.10 and 13.04)
3. Click "Install"

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected output: install without warnings
Instead I see a dialog message saying that "The package is of bad quality"
With the following details:
"
The installation of a package which violates the quality standards isn't 
allowed. This could cause serious problems on your computer. Please contact the 
person or organisation who provided this package file and include the details 
beneath.

Lintian check results for /home/daboross/Downloads/pyalienfx_1.0.2_all.deb:
E: pyalienfx: control-file-has-bad-permissions postinst 0775 != 0755
E: pyalienfx: control-file-has-bad-permissions prerm 0775 != 0755
"

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I have download pyalienfx_1.0.2_all.deb, I encounter this on Ubuntu 12.10 and 
Ubuntu 13.04

Please provide any additional information below (Python Error Message if
possible).

The package still installs fine, it just has a warning.

Well it's just a new message ... It is not of "bad quality" even if it's not of 
Prime quality either ;) 

you have 4 way :

1) Click the Ignore and Install Button
2) run : sudo dpkg -i ./pyalienfx_1.0.2_all.deb (from the folder where you have 
the deb file)
3) get the source with the tar.gz
4) get the source from the git

It installs fine from the software center using ignore and install, it just 
looked like a somewhat easy fix? Correct me if I'm wrong, but all it is 
complaining about is the group having permission to wrote to something? 775 
instead of 755?

Yup you're probably right, and it's probably really easy to fix, and I'll dive 
into it this summer ;) 
except of course if you want to learn how to make Ubuntu compliant packages ? :D
