If not, where > would that operation be performed? Setup doesn't set any special permissions. It sets a generic umask and mode, and applies that throughout. ALL special permissions, scripts, and local customisations are done via post-install scripts, which run after setup extracts the package files, and before setup completes. So, if the TEMP permissions need adjusting, it's the job of a postinstall script (perhaps base-files in this case) to do that.
