intel-media-driver: wrong permissions of library?

'intel-media-driver' install the new graphic driver for Intel newest chips.
But the driver permissions is different of the rest of graphic drivers in same folder:

$ ll /usr/lib/dri/
total 175M
-rwxr-xr-x 5 root root 9,5M dic  4 15:36 i915_dri.so
-rwxr-xr-x 5 root root 9,5M dic  4 15:36 i965_dri.so
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 7,9M dic 10 04:40 i965_drv_video.so
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  27M dic 11 11:26 iHD_drv_video.so
-rwxr-xr-x 8 root root  12M dic  4 15:36 kms_swrast_dri.so
-rwxr-xr-x 8 root root  12M dic  4 15:36 nouveau_dri.so
-rwxr-xr-x 5 root root 9,5M dic  4 15:36 nouveau_vieux_dri.so
-rwxr-xr-x 5 root root 9,5M dic  4 15:36 r200_dri.so
-rwxr-xr-x 8 root root  12M dic  4 15:36 r300_dri.so
-rwxr-xr-x 8 root root  12M dic  4 15:36 r600_dri.so
-rwxr-xr-x 5 root root 9,5M dic  4 15:36 radeon_dri.so
-rwxr-xr-x 8 root root  12M dic  4 15:36 radeonsi_dri.so
-rwxr-xr-x 8 root root  12M dic  4 15:36 swrast_dri.so
-rwxr-xr-x 8 root root  12M dic  4 15:36 virtio_gpu_dri.so
-rwxr-xr-x 8 root root  12M dic  4 15:36 vmwgfx_dri.so

Is this a bug? Could this affect to the functioning of driver?

I can cofirm those are the permissions in the package.  It looks like a packaging bug to me.  Have you checked the bug tracker?

Doesn't matter.
