[SOLVED] Permissions warning on GDM upgrade to 2.28-1

I recently upgraded GDM to the latest version out of the extra repo, and received the following warning on upgrade:

warning: directory permissions differ on var/log/gdm/
filesystem: 1770  package: 755
warning: directory permissions differ on var/run/gdm/
filesystem: 1775  package: 1777
usermod: no changes

If it's relevant, I built the package via ABS. No alterations, just ran makepkg and installed the resulting pkg.tar.gz. I wasn't able to find anything about this in a changelog, so does anyone know if I should be going with the permissions according to the package? Or should I keep my current permissions as is?

On a lesser note, the last line caught my attention, but it doesn't seem like anything to be concerned about.... Or is it?

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.
