>Description:

The cad/linux-eagle is owned by whichever user does the 'make build'
of the port, not the user who does the 'make install'.

i.e., if I do a 'make build' as user 'dmagda', but I do a 'make
install' as root, all the files in /usr/local/share/eagle will be
have ownership dmagda:wheel.

>How-To-Repeat:

$make build (as a regular user)
#make install (as root)
#ls -l /usr/local/share/eagle/

>Fix:

Instead of using tar(1), perhaps use cpio(1)? The www/mozilla port
does this. From www/mozilla/Makefile (do-install: target):

    [...]
    cd ${WRKSRC}/dist/bin && ${FIND} . | \
           cpio -pdm -L -R ${LIBOWN}:${LIBGRP} ${PREFIX}/lib/${MOZILLA}
    [...]
