Sorry for mailing twice, I never got a response. Is there a workaround for getting the default install group to be what I want it to be?

I don't understand why a later chgrp doesn't provide what you need.

That's what I'm doing now, but that means I have to chgrp every time packages are installed or updated. One package isn't really a problem, but doing this for many packages is. I have to know all file paths associated with every installed/updated package and chgrp( -R) on all of them (which can be time consuming). Even using -R sometimes won't do because some subdirectories' groups would need to remain.

Would adding cmd line arguments for user/group to setup.exe be possible?
