Without this various things get installed as root and are unusable once
running as a normal user. This is unfortunately the case of all Python
packages, as they don't use `install' or a package format that preserves
file permissions. This also affects various other random files created
during initial setup, such as /etc/polkit-1/rules.d/50-libvirt-$USER.rules
and others.

This may help others. I'm running on FC18 and I was getting weird errors such as

error: authentication failed: polkit: Authorization requires authentication but no agent is available.

error: failed to connect to the hypervisor

and this was after wrestling with a slew of other failures related to files being unreadable from my user, because they were installed with my default umask of 066.
