Does not set permissions for Anonymous and Authenticated users [#2015427]

Hi is this a normal behaviour or am I doing something wrong. Basically everything works well and it is a huuuuge time saver, not to mention that its given me the courage to create a distribution of my own :)
But, I came across this issue and am not sure if I am missing something or if this is the way its supposed to run.....Admin permissions are all set fine but it will not set permissions for Anonymous and Authenticated users
Profile created using "drush distro profilename --untar"

If this is how its supposed to work than please consider it as a feature request for future release. Thanks

P.S Kudos to developer for this module! Its not working as perfect as I would like right now but my god its still an awesome module and I am surprised its given so little love.

lol. first, thank you for your feedback; I agree it's one of the more under-appreciated projects I've worked on as it saves me boatloads of time as well.

The scope of this is purely for creating profile and distro packaging, permissions and more advanced default configurations are still on the site builder to package up as Features, enable, and then have included with their distribution. For example, any content types you want along with the default config will need to be in a feature as well as the permission defaults you mentioned.

The Admin role is a special case that gets added the same way the "standard" Drupal install profile does. Whenever you go through the form and check the box next to running standard routine, that sets up the admin role. I'd recommend leaving admin to be packaged this way but doing anon / auth users via a feature. Hope this helps
