Hmm, probably all of these files are symlinks, and it's the key. And I
noticed that the path is /usr/share/sawfish... Is it run as root?

(BTW isn't it more common to use more protected environment? In Gentoo linux,
the log looks:

    /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 $d.tar /tmp/portage/portage/x11-wm/sawfish-9004-r2/image//usr/share/sawfish/themes/$d.tar; \

I.e. it's run in "sandbox." )
